Check your Model View Options. You should create a Model View Option Combination with the desired settings and assign it to the View in the View Map.

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.

Bobby:

The only way I could replicate your image is by setting the Model View Options for doors and windows to "Show Opening Only", I couldn't replicate this with various settings for the walls, doors and windows using the Floor Plan Cut Plane, but the problem might be there: are the doors, windows and walls set to "Symbolic"? Perhaps posting some screen shots with your Model View Options, Door, Window and Wall settings will help someone figure out the cause of your display problem.

How's it look in 3D?

Bobby:

The Model View Options look good, so you might want to check some display options for the walls, doors and windows: you should set these to "Symbolic" (this ignores the Floor Plan Cut Plane, although yours looks reasonable if your units are millimeters). For the doors go to Door Settings > Floor Plan Display > and set to "Symbolic", same location for the windows, and for the walls go to Wall Settings > Floor Plan and Section > Floor Plan Display and set to "Symbolic". If that doesn't work, then I am afraid that I am out of ideas, hopefully someone else may have a clue.

Good luck,

David
