Need some help here

Yesterday we have set up a workset at work to share the project that have been going on for a while. And today I have discovered that some elements, that are a part of a group, are not showing on any views, not plans not 3d. But it you select the group then you can see that they are there. How to fix it? and what have caused it?

 We have checked with my colleague if maybe its a workset fault, tried to sync couple of times. but he sees the same problem.

See attachment.

Thanks for all the answers!

Why would you group all of that together?????   Please read up on the use of groups.

Do you have one instance of one group or multiple instances of the same group?  Your views don't really tell us.  If you have multiple placements of a group (which is what groups are meant for), then portions of the group may be included when placed.  This is usually caused by hosted objects that can't find a host.

I have several buildings in this project and all are in a very conceptual phase. So I grouped this one in order to make it easier and faster for me to move the whole thing around, while the urban planning is going on. 

The problem is the columns that have dissapeared from the group. When you select the group you can see them(as is showen on one of the pictures), otherwise they are not there. When I open a group to edit it, then they are not there either.

Ah-ha .... columns ... And you initially had grids - correct?  Columns associate with grids and when you move the building....no grids to place the column.

This is a poor use of groups.  You are better off to have everything on from a plan view set above everything with an infinite depth ... and with grids on.  Then window the area and move everthing.
