I open my revit project this morning and double clicked on my 3D view and there was nothing visible on the view. I then deleted it and created a new one with the same effect. It goes to the view but does not show anything. I know that it was there yesterday when I was working on the programme - have I maybe accidentally selected something that I shouldn't have?? Don't know what to do next to get it back??

The possibilities are... endless, but let's try some of the simpler ones first. When you create the 3d view, type "ZF" (for zoom fit) and see if anything happens. If that doesn't work: -Are you using worksets? -Are you using Phases? and of course, I'm assuming everything still shows up in plan and elevation view... ?

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The most famous is never get involved in a land war in asia, but only slightly less well known is this! Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line! |

here is a list of things to check from the Revit Beginners blog by David Duarte Did something in your project disappear? - First, check to see if it is still visible in other views.
- Check Visibility/Graphics. Is the object category (and subcategories) ON?
- Check Visibility/Graphics. Is the linestyle set to Override?
- Check Visibility/Graphics. Is the detail level set to By View?
- Check Visibility/Graphics. Are all the worksets ON?
- Check Visibility/Graphics. Are all the filters ON?
- Check Visibility/Graphics. If the object is in a linked file check Revit Links.
- Check Visibility/Graphics. Check each design option.
- Try changing phase and phase filter in View Properties (VP).
- Try changing the detail level of the view.
- Are all your worksets opened? (it may be hiding in a closed workset).
- Check View Range in View Properties (VP).
- Check for Plan Regions if in a floor plan view.
- The object may have been moved to a new elevation.
- Check Crop Region and Far Clip settings in View Properties (VP).
- Set your view to wireframe. It may be hiding behind a filled region or other object.
- Select the Linework tool (set to By Category) and see if it wasn't hidden with this tool. It would be very benefitial if one could toggle on/off the use of the linework tool in a view.
- If the problem is with a family file open the family and check the visibility of the elements.
If you can't find it by now it was probably deleted. HTH

I'm having a similar problem. I think I've rotated the model out of the 3d viewport. I've tried zoom fit, zoom extents, showing hidden, wireframe, and resetting the crop all to no avail. How can I get the model back in the crop region?

First - did you do everything coreed suggested? - If you didn't - do it now then ask again.

i ran into this problem this morning. nothing coreed posted fixed the problem. i found out that the 3D view had zoomed out some 250 million feet and the program appeared to have gotten lost and couldn't find the 3D model (plans were fine, nothing was deleted). turning off the crop box and zooming wouldn't locate the model. so to fix it, i drew a line in plan view a few million feet long and switched to 3D so i could see where the line was. then it was just a task of zooming in while moving the viewport back to where it was supposed to be. no idea what caused the problem, maybe a glitch (using '08 ).

Hello
I have the exact same problem in revit 2014. Thanks to nmartin i've manage to find the 3d model, it had been hiding away.
Nevertheless when i try to orbit around the model, it disappears again.. Does anybody know how to fix this huge problem?
Thanks .

sounds like the pivot point for rotation is far away from the model.
move that to the model then pivot or rotate.

99% of the time, you have a model element far away from the rest of the model. I suggest you window the entire view and see where all of the objects are found.
