I've got a custom exterior door that I'm working on and I was hoping someone could identify the problem I'm having with it.

 When I bring the door into a project, everything is visible and copacetic in the floor plan views and the 3-D views, but when I switch to the elevation, the panel is showing up but none of the glass/grids.

 I've checked to make sure the visibility settings are correct, but I can't seem to find the problem. Can anyone shed some light on the mistake?

In project change the "Coarse" mode to "Medium/fine" mode view, this solve the problem?

Also, you may want to open the door family and check the visibility settings of the grid / glass. They are probably turned on in 3D but not in Front / Back (elevation).

Select the problem sub components then clcik the visibility graphics override button on the properties palette.

You can also change the settings Ty has suggested from this same dialog box.

See attached image of visibility settings within the window family.
