I'm re-learning Revit after a 2.5 year hiatus and I'm having some frustrating problems I hope some of you can help me with.

 

I have this Family Object of a vanity sink (Capture1.png) and for some reason, it keeps showing a line on the plans that is no where to be found in the family object itself (Capture2.png & Capture3.png). What is it and how do I make it go away!?

The blue lines in 3 are the reference planes that control the hole in your counter.

 

The circle is the hole.  It shows in 2 because your lav doesn't block it.  A model sink woul as would a masking region in the family if the sink is just 2D lines in plan.

Thanks for your suggestions, but I'm wondering if it must be something else. Just as a test, I opened the family and deleted EVERYTHING (Capture1b) and loaded it back into the project. It still looks like this (Capture1a). Any other ideas or can you tell me if there's a way to view anything that might still be hidden that I'm somehow missing?

Did you only erase everything in the 3D view and not the plan/sections/elevations? If so, there are likely some 2D symbolic lines in the plan view.

You're probably right about the other views. How can I access them? I'm sorry to ask such a simple question, but I've been trying to figure that out without any success.

2d lines are in 2d views - like plans - sections - elevations.

The other views were helpful. I (mostly) got it to do what I wanted. Thank you.
