Hi,

 I'm quite new with Revit and need some help here. 

 I can't view my mass in the 3d view and the floors in my plan view. The only way I can select and view my mass is in the site plan view so I'm pretty sure that it's there. I can see my floors in the all other views but can't view or select the floor boundaries in my floor plan views. I already have all the relevant ticked in the Visibility/Graphics option for each view. 

Another problem that I'm facing is that under the properties, the measurements are always shown in inches but all other measurements in the project is in metrics. Is there a way to go about it? I've already tried changing all the units that I could under project units. 

I'm using Revit 2011. Would appreciate any help. =) Thanks!

in that plan view go to VG and check AGAIN "Mass" and "Floor/Slab"

Hi, thanks for your reply but I actually tried that, several times at least. 

 For my second question, I actually found out what's the problem already. I didn't have the metric templates saved on my com and by default, my project template was actually in imperial units! Sorry for the unnecessary trouble. =)
