Anyone can help me?

I was given a autocad 3d model in dwg file, the file was also imported into Revit & saved as rte & rvt format.

I tried to copy & paste rte & rvt into my current project, however, it is not shown on my layout plan, message: "None of the created elements are visible in Floor Plan: General Layout Plan - 4th Storey view. You may want to check the active view, its parameters, and visibility settings, as well as any plan regions and their settings"

I also tried to import cad into my current revit project, i get the same message.

Anyone know how I can " reveal " the cad model which was brought into my revit project?

I need to replace the furniture system in my current revit project with this new furniture system which was created in autocad.

Thanks

In Revit, go to a elevation view and check if your CAD file is upper or down than your model, sometimes you have your Revit model at Z= 700m elevation and your CAD at Z=0m so you can't see that cad file in that plan view because of that...

Thanks for your reply. So if let's say the elevation is really different, how do I change the elevation to match my floor plan?just move the cad file??
