View Full Version : Some Gridline not showing! Why?

My roof plan has some gridlines showing and some not. I have tried to hover over it to determine if it was hidden and there is indication that there is a gridline in that location. Is there a command to turn on the display of the gridlines.

Thanks,

Jason

The most likely reason is that the 3D extents of the grid lines are not intersecting the roof plane level.
In an elevation view, perpendicular to the grids, check where the grids finish. If below the Roof Level, stretch them up to intersect that level and then they will be visible in that plan view.

My question might sound stupid beegee but how do you got those triangle on the elevation instead of the round one ?

Beegee,

That was it. Thank you so much for your help!

Daniel,

The triangle or circle is the Level Head assigned to the level family. You can load one of the preset types from the family library or create your own.

I just use a scope box now in most projects to avoid all that 3D grid stuff that always caused problems...

we just had this happen yesterday. go to another view or plan that shows the missing grid and check to see if one end has been dragged up or down or out of the view range. that should fix it.
