We are currently experiencing a big problem when viewing our model in 3D- we can only see some of our project.
I have attached 2 images, one is of the existing site for our project (on the left), and this appears fine in 3D mode.
The 2nd one is a proposed view of our site (on the right). It should look exactly the same, but with an extra building on the back- however as you can see the vast majority is missing.
Everything is fine on plan, section and elevation- just not in 3D.
The only thing that differs between the existing and proposed is that the proposed has a hot-linked building placed in it. The .pln of this hot-linked building also has this viewing problem, so I'm assuming this is why the other .pln now also has it.
We have fiddled with numerous settings and nothing seems to work.
This is causing serious difficulties as you can imagine so your help would be greatly appreciated!
check your layer combination !
Mybe some of your layers go off in 3d ! (this is common reason for your problems)
Do u see everything when u make section ?
Select on plan what you want in 3d, with marquee tool and then go to 3d
If you still cant see it, then select one object, go to 3d and u should see only that object and then select Show all in 3d.
What about your Layer Intersection Group Number? In the layer settings box if for example your existing to be demo'd walls and new walls have the same priority number, even if one is set not to show if they inhabit the same space they will compete and show/not show simultaneously.
