I need a camera to be set up on the first floor of a project that we are doing at my office. I have tried moving the camera from the second floor to the first to get it, but when that happens it gets rid of walls and it changes what the floorplan looks like. Is there something that may be adjusted in settings as to why I can't make a camera?  Need help ASAP

Why are you moving a camera?   You can have as many camera views as you want.   Simply open the first floor plan and place a new camera there.

I'm having an issue where I can't create a camera on the first floor.  It simply will not let me click to create the camera.  All other floors work fine.  Am I missing a setting?

Are you sure this is a floor plan view?

 

Simply create a new floor plan under view.   (Hint - Uncheck the do not duplicate box)

Eye level is 5'6", Plan cut Plane is 4'-0", we didn't change the defaults so it's set up like out-of-the-box Revit.  We did get around it by just duplicating the First Floor Plan, but that shouldn't be necessary.  What causes floor plans to lock out the ability to create camera views?

Where is the top of your view range?   Camera has to be under that.

It was all due to phasing. I know how to edit a camera level and such, but it was all because we have many many many different phases and the phase we were in wasn't the main model with all things and so it wouldn't allow us to do it. Thank you all
