i have a floor plan and i use layer combinations to put different information on four diffrent layouts...the first two are ok, the other two will at first display the info correctly, then they will only display the drawing's frame, without the elements inside.
i followed the same steps in creating them and any other layout that i would create from this point on would have the same problem.
i have to mention that the checkbox with "display frame only" is not checked.
so??? bug??? or am i a complete retard???

before we start:
1. put the AC version and platform (PC/Mac) in your signature so we can see what you're using.
2.
the other two will at first display the info correctlynot sure what you mean by the info...
3. try to redefine the viewpoints again, note if you have changed the layer combo's name the viewpoint will not recognise it (known bug), so change the layer combo to whichever you need to and then re-save the viewpoint
4. refresh the drawings on layouts or eventually delete wrong drawings from layouts and place them on again
let us know how did you go...

2.info = drawing, plan, whatever is on the screenthe other two will at first display the info correctlynot sure what you mean by the info...
3. try to redefine the viewpoints again, note if you have changed the layer combo's name the viewpoint will not recognise it (known bug), so change the layer combo to whichever you need to and then re-save the viewpointi already tried redefining the viewpoints...
4. refresh the drawings on layouts or eventually delete wrong drawings from layouts and place them on againalready refreshed them, tried the delete and re-place them method, everything is ok until i switch to plan view or close and reopen the document. then everything disappears again
today i found out that someone else at a local architecture firm has the same problem, so he uses multiple stories instead of layouts... 😕

Also, WHEN IN LAYOUT, show and unlock all layers.
wouldn't your advice be unsuitable for this?

That's just as bad.

but i suppose they do the section with the needed layers visible and then copy-paste it in 2D...
