Tthe organisation is working with many in-house depts, we have enabled worksets for them. The Architectural Team uses "Architectural" as a discipline in the Floor Plans and the Electrical Team uses "Electrical" as discipline. With disciplines we thought it would be easy to manage our drawings in the Project Browser. Till here we are through.

When we see a Electrical Plan, the entire layout (architectural as well as electrical) is completely grayed out.(Note discipline for this view is set to electrical). With that even the Electrical Symbols and Detail Lines are also grayed out, which shouldn't be the case!

Any help on this would be appreciated.

check the phase setting on your elec. plan and see if it is set to a newer phase than your other plans. Or make sure halftone isn't checked in VV.

Scott, i checked that there is nothing checked as halftone in the visibility and neither have phases been used in the project. The phase filter and the current phase are as they are in the architectural drawings.

Check the attachment.

I believe this is a bug in Revit Systems and therefore seems to have made its way into the function of Revit Building as well. Contact Revit support to discuss this.
