Line created using Cut profile tool in section (brick ledge in foundation wall) doesn't show in plan view?  

I have created a brick ledge in the foundation wall section using the cut profile tool, but when viewing the wall in plan view the line to indicate the brick ledge isn't visible. I previously used the brick profile in wall element, and the line to indicate the brick ledge is visible. I have tried to adjust the view range to show the line but nothing works. Any ideas?

Cut profile tool is not a "model" change, it is a change that only occurs in that view.  Something like a brick ledge should probably be achieved using the floor and then a slab edge with the profile you want.  You might could also use the Wall Foundation tool on the Structural tab of Revit 2011 if you are wanting to have an isolated foundation with a brick ledge at the wall only.

Hope this helps.  Please let me know if I need to clarify anything.

 P.S.  Unless you are using Revit Structure, getting the brick ledge to show in plan view may be tricky.  There are probably a number of ways to achieve this, and this may not be the best way, but hat I would do in Revit architecture, if I wanted to show it in plan for some reason, is use the "show hidden lines" tool on the view tab.  You'll have to probably set the model to wireframe in the plan view you want them to show, then use the tool.  That said, I would probably try to isolate the two elements in the view so you can see what's going on.

Hope this helps.
