I'm having a visibility problem with mechanical equipment that I have built in the project.
For some reason the family shows up through everything. For example, this is all build on the 4th floor, but it shows up on the 3rd floor. . .or in section it shows, but it's in a building that I'm not even cutting through.
I have messed with the visibility, and view range. And the only way that I can get it to quit showing is if I turn it off.
Any ideas?
Thanks

I'll post a few images to show you what I'm talking about. . . . . . . . . . . .time passing. . . . . . . . . .still passing. . . . . . . .
OK, there are 3 images. I highlighted each in red to show you the problem areas.
In the fire view (plan) this is the 3rd level, and all of these units are drawn 17' higher than the third floor. There are some units that are not highlighted over to the right a bit, but these are on the third floor, so those are OK.
Now, In section1, you can see the units that are on the third floor in the background, but they are cutting through a wall that is over 100' in front of it, not to mention that they are concealed in a whole diff building beyond.
In section2, the 2 units are actually behind the cut plane. If you look at the plan, this section is the middle longitude section looking down, and these units are above it.
This sucks. . .frustrating.
