Hello,

I have a project that I have linked in floor plans. I Cannot put spot levels on the slab Faces?

I have a simular Project again with Links and I have no problem putting spot levels on the slab Faces.

I have checked that the slabs are turned on in the views and I can put Spot levels on in 3D views and in Section Views, but not plans.

I have also linked in the plans that are not working in this file into the file where I have no problems and I can Spot level the slabs there.

Is there a setting somewhare causing this issue? I am stumped.

I am using 2013

Check if the view is in 'Wireframe' mode.

We can also put spot elevations on caseworks, toilets and the like, but the one thing we need (Slabs) not working?

Make sure the floor is really there in the link and that it is on in this view.  Linked file VG can be controlled separately from host model so be sure.

Yes the Floors are on. I can find the edge of the slabs but not the face.

OK - someone else has to verify this in 2013 to see if it is a bug.  This works for me in my current 2012 project. 

BTW - You do have the latest build of 2013 - Update release 2.  If not then that is probably your problem.

I have build: 20120221_2030(x64)

As I stated earlier it is working fine in other files. I am assuming that there is a bug or a setting in this file that is not happy.

If it doesn't say update release 2, then you don't have the latest updates!  Install that because it corrected a lot of problems.
