Hey All, 

  Been using Revit awhile and have never come across this one.  A student of mine has encountered a bit of an issue, 2 of her floors that have solid walls are showing up as clear/glazing and everything on the floor is displaying in grayscale while the rest of the model is showing up in color.  There's nothing wrong with the materials of those solid walls, if I copy her entire model into a new file it fixes itself, but for whatever reason, in 3D and perspective, those 2 floors (see attached) show up as seen.  Anyone else ever encountered this one?

Delete the 3D and make a new one.  What happens?   If it fixes it, someone had an over-ride on.

Nope not it.  Even when creating a new camera view it has the same problem.  Like I said before, the material she has for the walls on the floors above and below those 2 are the exact same so I'm not sure what's going on.  There's no graphic override on them or anything like that either.

WE have been using Revit for a very long time.   I doubt very much that "... the material she has for the walls on the floors above and below those 2 are the exact same so I'm not sure what's going on...".  There is something else going on here.

 

Use the paint tool and pick default as the paint to paint these walls (in later versions use the remove paint).

That's actually one of the first things I did.  I tried to paint the surfaces any number of materials in the file and the surfaces won't take a material, they stay the exact same.  And if it was a painted surface that was glass, that still wouldn't explain why everything is grayscale behind it.  I appreciate all the help so far!  Like I said...it's a really bizarre issue.  Might just be a case of a corrupted file and just call it a day.

And painted surfaces could have been the issue, my student has just started learning revit this semester, so she could have been doing who knows what to cause the issue.  I just haven't come across it before to know what could have caused it.
