I hope someone can help me because I'm trying to find out the solution for a long time with no results.
When I draw a curtain wall (with default settings or not) I can see its frames in plan but when I go to 3D view they are allways missing, no matter what I do.
It's very annoying

(Im using Archicad 18 on Yosemite)

In the Model View Options Dialog, in the Options for Construction Elements panel, make sure that the Full radio button is selected for Curtain Wall Options.
IF that is the cause you should also check and, if needed, modify your saved Model View Option combinations because some of them might contain this setting.

Have you tried some different settings with 'Design' -> 'Modify Curtain Wall' -> 'Edit System'?
To access it you'll have to select the curtain wall.

Thanks for your answer Dontknow
I have tried but no result.
It is curious that when I select a frame its boundary box is shown
Needless to say, the frames are not in invisible mode.
