Invisible REVEALS

I have a problem with reveals. Just noticed that reveals of perfectly drawn doors are gone from a 3D view. They are visible on 2D. When window is selected in 3D, reveal active points are visible. Reveals themselves are not. - see picture. Because of those missing reveals roller blinds and window frame is visible.

Any idea how can I turn the back on?

Tried to copy the wall to different files where other door reveals are ok. Still nothing.

HI!
If you use reveals where the door contour doesn’t match the opening like a Slanted Reveal, the black dot will appear. If the wall opening is simple, the points of the door and the points of the wall’s hole are covering each other.
Please go to Door Selection Settings (Ctrl+t) > Hinged Door Settings > Wall Opening > Reveal and adjust your settings there.
Choose a different type of reveal and you will be able to see those points independently. See image

Thanks for Your replay.

Thing is that I have just the same reveal selected as You did. 92mm from left and right. Both visible on a 2D, both invisible in 3D... To be honest it must be something with Archicad. Not door settings. Reveals were invisible yesterday and today are visible. No changes were made.

It is very strange...[/img]

Did you check the partial structure display settings of your 3D view?

Hi, please try to set the door settings as seen on the attached screenshots and subsequently reset the door sizes.
(hide the shaders without beams and columns)
Best regards,

Thanks. It might help but I need them to be different sizes as I am using thermo beam which has to be hidden.
