walls, doors, disappearing...???!!!!

[Anonymous]

Hi

i am using Archicad 18 and i face a unique problem, sometimes, when i activate the view maps, the walls, doors, etc....disappear in the floor plan (in the project map). but see it all in the view (3D). I have checked the layer settings but with no result.

I then, need to close the project and reopen it to get the original floor plan i did. What could be the reason ?????

Raghunanda:

This could be caused by the Renovation Status assigned to the missing elements and the Renovation Filter currently activated (Renovation Filter is part of a View, but not the Project Map). In the Help files see: Views of the Virtual Building > Renovation > Renovation Filters > About Renovation Filters.

You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.

Thank you David, Appreciate your support. Shall revert on the method you suggested me to follow.

I had a similar problem, because I used 2 walls in the same storrey one above each other

1wall) 0-1m
2wall) 1-3m

the window was in 2nd wall; But the first wall would be displayed in the final plan.

so send to back, or cutting plane did the trick

There is a thread which lists a number of reason an element may not be visible. Hope that helps:
