When I opened my Elevation it showed all black. First time happening to me. What should I do?

If you are not deliberately using a black background, then the first thing I would try is to restart your machine.

Not some macOS darkmode setting / interaction? Given that your contours are all white, it is almost as if the hardware accelerated window is having it's colours inverted.

I don’t know. That’s never happened to me. Does being a copy/paste from another archicad document have anything to do with it?

It shouldn't do.

Is the floor plan view background black as well?

Barry.

[Denis Aviel]

Nope

[Barry Kelly]

Are other elevations or sections black?

Barry.

[Denis Aviel]

Yes, also the sections. The plans and 3D are both fine 

[Barry Kelly]

I always thought that plans, elevations and sections use the same background (3D is different).

I have never seen them different to each other.

Check the background colour and maybe change it to something else and then change it back to white (I personally use a very pale green - easier on the eye and I can still see white lines as white colour).

Perfect. I’ll tell you if it works. Thank you
