Hi all, 

I've made a complex profile and it works fine in plan view .... then I move it in section  place it, and I can't see it again in plan view ? 

Any thoughts all  ??...

 

weekend is almost here !! 

 

regards Myles.

Maybe you have "Cut only" selected in Dialog Settings >> Floor Plan and Section >> Floor Plan Display.  Try to select "Project with Overhead".

Hi there

The below might help, it's a little troubleshooting list I get the guys here to go through when something isn't showing.

 

  1. Check layers.
  2. Check renovation status.
  3. Check what story the element is on.
  4. Check what stories the element is set to show on (E.g. home story only).
  5. Is the trace reference on? (E.g. Trace reference has option to hide fills).
  6. Does switching to another “Model View Option” work.

@Myles.Not clear did you place the profile IN the section view or just move it there?
