I have a strange issue going on with an electrical wire.
On one computer and only in one project I am unable to to change the Hot Conduct, Neutral Conductor and Ground Conductor numbers count. I can open the project on my machine and it works fine, open it on another machine and it works fine, Save to central and still works fine on all machines accept for this one. I can open a different project with the machine in question and the wires work fine, new project the wires work fine. It is only on this one project, and seems to be local to this one machine. As if there is a local variable stuck or locked. I have gone as far as uninstalling Revit and reinstalling it with no luck. The regestry was not cleaned and this seems to be my next step with another fresh reinstall, but this situation is very strange indeed.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Could this item be in a workset that you own but on this machine, your id is incorrect? Check your user ID under the Revit R / options.

Worksets are all "non editable", user ID is correct, even created new local, uninstalled and reinstalled Revit and recreated a new local again... I can create a new wire in this project but not on the circuit and it will work, I recreated the wire via "create similar" and it does not work. If I break the circuit it works but no home run arrow will appear. Seems I was wrong about the Hot, I can change the Hot but not the Neutral or Ground. It seems to be isolated to the circute but it still baffles me that other machines can modify no problem but this one machine can not.
Maybe it is the wire type... because it is not isolated to one idividual circuit it is different circuits but once I remove from circuite it will allow me to change Ground and Neutral count.
Still sratching my head...

What makes this more difficult is I can not tie up the guys machine to troubleshoot, he has keep working and because I can not duplicate the error on my machine, I can only troulbleshoot in short sperts.

mystery solved, my partner in crime figured it out... the Revit just needed the latest update... The one thing I did not check for... For some reason I thought installing fresh would have given me the latest updates but I was wrong and didn't even look.
FYI for anyone else with the same issue...
