Blue Site

[ford347]

Why do I have a blue site, like the thing is flooding? I have a topo laid down, the material is standart asphault, yet every time I am in a 3d perspective or a camera view, there are all these triangular blue flood zones. When you render, these come out white? I've tried turning off the ground plane and every other little thing I can think of. Has anybody else ran into this before?

By chance, do you have a DWG file loaded or linked that is visible in the view?

[ford347]

Yes I do. But I turned it off and it still does the same thing.

Could it be triangulation? Do you have that turned off? I know it is off by default, so that may not be it. Maybe you could post a screenshot of what is going on?

[ford347]

I have everything but the top itself turned off under topography and it still seems to be showing up. Weird.

[DanielleAnderson]

It almost looks like there are 2 sites on top of each other. If you delete one is there another one there? Are there subregions involved? Those can cause some problems sometimes as well.

[Scott D Davis]

it has to do with phasing. did you do a graded region? Revit basically creates two topos when you do, one for exisitng, and one for new so it can calculate cut/fill between them. Try changing your phase filters in the view.

I think its the temporary(when you create and demo at the same phase) phase, the default temporary phase is blue.

You guys are awesome....bunch of geniuses! I forgot I was trying to get my grade to depress at my loading dock ramp and I was trying to use a graded region at one point. (don't know how) Thanks a lot!
