And I thought I was the one always pointing to the Help....

This information was not available in earlier releases and I had not seen it.

Good pointer jmgrsq - It looks like I have some tools I was not using.

I was having the exact same issue with tables and chairs, and found this entry

http://help.autodesk.com/view/RVT/2014/ENU/?guid=GUID-317442EB-D50B-4BE6-B0F8-1F3BE3AB74B9

just wanted to post since the link from jmgrsq is broken

For the chair family, if you turn OFF "draw in foreground" and have the masking region set to a reference plane at the proper height is shows up properly - I had two separate masking regions, one at the elevation of the seat and the other at the height of the seat back.  I also set the table masking region to a reference plane at the proper height.
