I have inserted a cooktop into a cabinet that is not visable in the floor plan view but is visable in an elevation view. However there is a sink that is next to it that is visable.

" Edit the family, click on that "Cooktop" and check "Visibility"... " Thanks for your post, but here is what happened. First of all it worked but when I tried to save as it said that itwas read only are was open somewhere else. So I just saved as another name but I could not see the other cooktop that was nserted no matter how many objects I turned off. If I went to the view of 2nd floor I could see the 2nd cooktop was still incerted in the drawing. What do I do about this to remove it.

In that 2nd floor select that zone by "Crossing" then go to "Filter" and leave "ON" ONLY that family you want, then delete...

I'm soory but I'm not sure what you mean by crossing. Do you mean window around it , if so I tried it but did not find the filter command. Maybe I was on the wrong tab. Please give me some detail. I appreciate all of your help.

From your HELP (I added comments in BOLD): Selecting Multiple Elements To select more than one element, use one of the following methods:• While pressing CTRL, click each of the elements. • Draw a selection box by placing the cursor on one side of the elements to be selected and dragging it diagonally to form a rectangular boundary. <THIS IS A WINDOW> o To select only elements that are completely within the boundary of the selection box, drag the cursor from left to right. <THIS IS A CROSSING> o To select any elements that are wholly or partially within the boundary of the selection box, drag the cursor from right to left. • Press TAB to highlight connected elements, and then click to select. See Selecting Chains of Walls and Lines. • Right-click on a family type name in the Project Browser or a family type in the drawing area, and click Select All Instances. This tool selects all instances of that family type in your project. See Project Browser. NoteIf you are editing a design option, the tool name is Select All Instances in Active Option. It selects all elements of that type in the active option only.
