When Drawing an ICF wall the styrofoam shows up in plan view but not in the 3d, In the Projects,define wall what do i need to check off to make it visible,I use the outside of the styro as bearing so without it showing it leaves a ledge.

You probably have to turn on the material visibility under Options tab -> Material

As far as I'm aware, Styrofoam doesn't show on the model ... As far as I remember, there are a few material that don't show in the model. For my I.C.F. walls, I've added a 1/4" parging layer outside the foam.

I have mine show foam. Maybe you need to have a image defined for the foam and not just color.
