You might think I'm exaggerating, but this is by far the weirdest thing I've ever seen in Revit. I noticed yesterday that in one of the floor plan views of our project, there is what appears to be two giant concentric circles infilled with a hatch. On closer inspection, the circles are walls. The walls are both walls that are part of the model, but in other plan views and in the 3D view of the project, the walls appear only as arcs, as they ought to be. So it's only this one particular view (and its dependent views) that show the problem. I could probably solve the problem by just deleting the offending walls and re-drawing them, but that would involve a lot of work at this point in the project. Plus I am totally baffled and would like to get to the bottom of this. Please help! I've attached a lot of pictures so you can see what I'm talking about. P.S. Everyone on the team denies that they had any role in the appearance of the mysterious giant circle, so I'm thinking it's stricly a Revit problem. P.P.S. More info re: the hatch: the hatch can't be selected, but it turns red when you have one of the walls selected and you pan in the view.

I doubt very much that this is a Revit problem. Questions: - Is this a regular wall or wall by face or something else that is unique?
- Does the wall have a sketch? _ Don't know how it can since it is a circle.
- Did you try splitting the wall and deleting the unwanted part?
- Is the wall grouped in any way?

1. Nope. Both walls are just normal, curved walls. (And, weirdly, they look just fine in other views.) 2. nope 3. Tried this, but no luck. Revit won't let me select the part of the wall to the left of the blue dot. (See attached picture.) And if I try to split the main wall, revit keeps the crazy lines with the biggest part of the wall. 4. nope I've attached a close-up of the end of one of the wonky walls. Looks like only a few of the layers go all the way around.

Funny, but no - I trust my team members, and am pretty sure they're telling me the truth when they say they had nothing to do with it.

trying changing the wall type to generic wall type and then change it back to the correct wall type.

So I figured out what the problem was...I deleted the plan regions on both of the walls (you see one of them outlined in green at the right of the last image I uploaded), and, miraculously, the weird walls returned to normal. I re-drew the plan regions and everything looks good...for now. Thanks everyone for your replies, really appreciate it.
