Show referenced file in elevation

[JonHarrah]

Hello everyone, 

I have a question Is there a way to show the as-built reference file in the elevations?  I can get them to show in the floor plan and 3-d camera, but not in the section and elevations.  Red is the referenced as-built, but not showing in the elevation.  Any work around or am I just missing something.

Thanks.

My guess is in the elevation view, the walls are not checked in the layers for that camera.

 

Post the plan file so that others may offer a suggestion.

I figured it out.  it was not referenced in the elevations in the plan but will not show up in the layout plan.

If you are sharing from X17 I would just export a project, because you were missing the as built plan. If you are sharing from X16 or prior make a backup which will include all files. You cant do a reference elevation in layout, just send your elevation from the as built and send your elevation from your proposed and layer it on top

The other workaround is sending an orthographic camera set to 90 90 direction and tilt but you can't directly annotate that with regular cad based text and polylines
