I have a project where the floor plan is located over 2 levels of about 3000mm height difference. Due to the scale and nature of the job we want to show both levels on the one plan (they are connected by ramps). My problem arises in that i have a generic model family of conveyor belts that run through the floor plan from floor level into the ceiling above. When I add the family it shows the family cut at the correct height in relation to the overall plan (at the height of the views cut plane), however once i add a plan region with a higher cut plane to a region of the plan, the cut plane of the family changes to match this height. At no point does the plan region cross the family. Any ideas to resolve this would be apreciated. I amn using Revit 2011

This may be your problem. You say: "... At no point does the plan region cross the family." Are you certain. A family will show if any part of the family is cut and that includes invisibles lines in the family. I would edit the family and make sure.

I am certain there are not extrenuous lines floating about in the family. Aside from checking the family I also tried creating the plan region quite a distance away from any part of the model in plan view and I still get the same result. The family is made up of a 3d autocad file inserted into the family file, this is the only thing I can think of that would make it different to any of the other generic familys in the project. This family works fine in all views except the plan once a plan region is added.

It is probably the 3D autoCAD file. It would be beneficial to all if you determine what the problem is. I wonder about orgin in the CAD or layers off in the CAD import.
