I'm sure there is a simple fix, but since I'm green to Revit, I am clueless.

I'm attempting to draw model lines in section and keep getting this message:

"None of the created elements are visible. You may want to check the active view, its Parameters, and Visibility settings, as well as any Plan Regions and their settings."

What am I missing? Everything was working and I'm not sure what changed.

I've discovered that now, the model lines I draw end up X number of feet further inside my building. ???

First select the "Workplane" then draw the model lines in that section view, in plan view create a "ref. plane" near the place you want your model lines, select "set work plane" and select that ref. plane, open that section view and draw the model lines.

I get it. So I pick the plane on the plan and then work on the section or elevation. I was trying to select the plane IN the section. Thanks for the clarification. I knew it was going to be something simple. Thanks.
