Hi Guys,

I used a scope box to bring my level lines together when viewed in elevation etc. thanks to the help of this thread:http://www.revitcity.com/forums.php?action=viewthread&thread_id=1509

However, my ground floor level refuses to show itself. I have changed the size of the scope box, croped the ground floor, uncroped the ground floor, checked the visibility settings within the scope box, made sure the annotation is not hidden. All to no avail.

What else is there to do?

I just want the ground floor level line to show up just like all the other levels within my elvations,sections etc. Using the steps outlined in the thread above worked fantasticall y with all the other levels.

Any pointers are appreciated.

Look in HELP under "extents"  (NOT extends) and sub category... "Example of Datum visibility in project views".  This will explain what you need to know.

Hi WWHub,

Thanks for the reply.

I thought that help file would do the trick but unfortunately not. No matter how big I make the sope box or crop region I cannot find the ground floor level line in any of my sections or elevations.

Using the scope box definately brought all my other levels into view but not the ground floor. The extent f the scope box definatley intersected the ground floor before I selected all the levels and associated them to the scope box. Why wouldn't the "select all instances' not select the ground floor?

What the?

Is there a way to transfer all of the elements tied to the ground level to another new layer, delete the ground floor and then rename the new layer ground floor?

Check for hidden in view (the light bulb).  If you have worksets enabled, then turn on all worksets, and verify that you have all of your worksets open (they appear in visibility/graphics with asterisks if they aren't open).  Last thing I can think of would be to check that you don't have several Level "types".  If your ground floor didn't show up when you did the select all, then it is logical to assume that it isn't of the same type.  I also highly recommend opening up a "test" file to play with these concepts, they work faster, if you cause damage, you don't get angry about it, and it really helps to be able to illustrate what you are trying to do.  Annotation in Revit can be grueling, if you don't think it out in advance.

 Best of luck

Thanks tabest.

I'll give that a try.

I am a little baffled as to why this has happened. The template from which a new file is created from when firing up revit is just fine.

 The file with the missing ground floor annotation literally only has a few walls and a couple of windows in it. Very basic.
