I'm working in Revit Architecture 2013.  I'm having issues with my detail callouts showing on my Plans and Enlarged Plans.  I've checked Visibility Graphics and the templates and "Callout" is checked.  I've also checked the detail I've created and checked "hide at scales coarser than." They were showing at one point and now they disappeared on the plan and I can't create any new detail callouts.  They are still showing in my Detail views.  Am I missing something? 

Thanks in advance.

"I can't create any new detail callouts"

Are you getting an error when you try or it just doesn't work? Do you have all of the updates installed?  Did you check to see if they were just hidden (by clicking on the lightbulb not in VG)?

Do you have your updates installed ?  You don't say.

Try a new plan and see if they work.  If not, then it may be your system or a corrupted file.

All my updates are installed and I checked my lightbulb.  When I try to create one, I get this message:

"None of the created elements are visible in Floor Plan: 1ST FLOOR - NEW View. You may want to check the active view, its Parameters, and Visibility settings, as well as any Plan Regions and their settings."

I will see if making another plan will help.  I am JVing with another Architecture firm, so I will see if they changed a setting, because it worked earlier that day.

I would check to see if you have filter actvated that is hiding them.  Other than that, they might have been deleted.  Do a save as and change name and back up the old file to a version where they were visable and see what the view settings are and recreate those condtions in the save as file.

I just got off the phone with them.  They did have a filter on it hiding all details that weren't on sheets.  Thanks!
