Hi Guys how can i fix the gridlines that runs in a radial direction? If its on plan view the grid is visible, but if i switch into section or elevation view only the perpendicular grid is visible. Can anyone help me about this? I attached the screeshot for this just for additional information.
thanks

Revit will ONLY display gridlines that are perpendicular to the view. Otherwise it does not know where to display the non-parallel grids in relation to your cut plane. You'll have to create a "dummy" grid head symbol, place it on a drafting line in each view, and manage them manually.

it would be nice if it automatically placed them at their crossing with the cut plane. I wonder why they don't.

The projected grids would intersect the view well outside the extents of the curtain wall which seems like it would be rather confusing visually. Imagine trying to add mullions to the right side of the curtain wall and needing to pick on a grid that is 50' to the right of the end of the curtain wall. It would pretty difficult to keep track of which grid controlled which mullions.
