HOTSPOT on Elevation View

All of a sudden I am seeing several hotspots on Railings and Beams on my Elevation. It did not appear before, so I am guessing I might have accidentally changed a setting. Can someone help? I am attaching a screenshot of the elevation

It looks to me like you may have inadvertently deleted the source view and are now left with an independent elevation view.  If the elevation in the project map no longer says "Auto-rebuild model", but rather "Independent" that is what happened and you are left with a collection of lines and fills.

That makes sense Chris. I was a bit impatient and created new views which fixed the issue. But after your explanation, I now know the reason.

Thank You
