Does anyone have thoughts as to what could have happened? Visibility is on, color set, but today the frames aren't showing.

Tried cold boot, still nothing.

Just this project!

Is the window custom? Does the window elevation show correctly? Was transparency clicked? Did you try the same window in another project to see if it is the window or the project?

Yes it is a custom window. Elevations generate fine. Does the same thing in other projects.

What I don't understand is it was fine yesterday. Still the exact same custom window.

Thoughts?

It probably has something to do with the elevation opening it is tied to. I would double check that. Maybe relinking it in the library or redrawing the elevation opening will resolve it.

Instead of making a custom window, you can "mull" multiple existing windows together or adjust a grill layout and achieve much the same look. Then you can group those windows and create a new opening. Depends on what you are trying to accomplish, but almost more realistic if the actual window will be a mulled window or window with horizontal grills.

Is that stone texture in softplan?  That looks very nice.

Somewhere, the frame corners/junctions are not filleted correctly

Thanks for the suggestions. I just re-created the custom windows and all is fine. I guess the answer was a gremlin. I hate it when things don't have an understandable answer.

 

No that texture was not from the SoftPlan library.
