Graphisoft's "solution" was to redefine the view settings of the first floor, navigate up a story and redefine the view settings of the second floor so that they are both saved with the same zoom. I'm sorry, that is not a solution. I re-link every plan view to align perfectly on the layouts (floor plans, structural plans, mechanical plans, electrical plans, etc.). There are 3-4 plans for each category. I am not about to manually re-save all of those views with the exact same zoom and still risk things moving if a team member re-saves the view with a different zoom. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this?

I fear the file is beyond repair so we are copying and pasting the corrupt file into a clean template file one story at a time. So far it seems to be working. Next we will copy all of our elevation/section notes into the new file. And then we will recreate the layouts.
If anyone has any experience successfully repairing a corrupt file, please share. I never want to rebuild a file again.

- If you haven't tried that yet, then definitely try Opening the project with Open & Repair.
- Also, If the model is far from the project origin, that can cause a host of nasty things, so make sure it is not far from the origin.
- Moving it to a new project is a good idea (have you tried simply merging the old file to a new, empty template?)
If you can create a short video for me about the 2 issues (the jumping and the rotation on a specific layout), and send it to me with a PLA of your project (in a private message), I would be more than happy to take a look at it.

In summary: apparently opening and repairing does the trick.

I know some coworkers have used open and repair successfully on other files (for various issues) so that is always a good thing to try.
