I'm calling on to the Revit Gods for their Wisdom and Knowledge!

Every time i try to edit sketch on a floor or edit the massing in my drawing, i get an error saying that i have a circular chain of references and i cannot edit.
What does this mean? How can i fix this?
This is seriously holding me up with this project!

Please Help!

This is about the worst error you can get in revit, it has no explanation of what the problem is.

Basically some how one object is ref. the object you are working on and the object you are working on is ref. that object(circular) and they can be edited properly any more.

The answer, delete the floor and recreate is probably the easiest. or you can do a move/ disjoin and move the floor, then move it back into place.

Or if you have time send it to revit for them to fix and send back.

Thanks for the reply Scott!

I messed around with it and somehow the problem is gone for the floor.

Also, which is weird about the massings is that they somehow connect and reference to each other so that you cannot edit.

I have yet to try and edit a massing to see if the problem is still there also.

I will post back after, in case anyone is interested in the outcome.
