Hello,

I've copied and pasted some elements to selected view while on a section view. However, the copied element are not showing on the relevant plan views where they were copied to.

This happens with different types of elements, including walls, windows and groups. I don't think it's an issue with visibility setting because all other walls are on. Neither is with hidden objects. They will not show when I hit "reveal hidden elements".

I can't find any way for the elements to show on the plan views, though I can work with them in section view!

Any idea why this is happening?

Thanks,

p.s.- I noticed another occasion a similar thing happened when coppying elements from a plan view to an area plan view.

One of the things you can look for is phasing. If you created the copied elements in the existing phase, the new copies will be created in the new construction phase adn thus wont be seen in any of your existing views. hope that helps.

Does the file have worksets? Phasing? Design options? All easy places to lose things.
