What does the "No Good View Can Be Found" Message in Ideate Explorer Mean?

Starting with the 16 October 2015 release of Ideate Explorer all view-specific elements, including those that have been made invisible can be found and revealed by double-clicking on the element. If the element is hidden Ideate Explorer will open the view and provide the option of using the Reveal Hidden Elements. Read: Show Building Elements for Precise Revit Modeling with Ideate Explorer.

If you are receiving the "No Good View Can Be Found" message it means that the object is not view-specific* and is not displayed in any view within the project. Here are some important things to check when evaluating such elements:

Elements that are part of a Design Option or Phase may not yet be shown within any view. Select the items in Ideate Explorer and then review within the Revit Properties palette to assess whether this might be true.
Some model elements or CAD Links or Imports (that are not view-specific) could potentially be hidden in all views. Methods for 'revealing' such elements might include:
- creating a new 3D view and ensuring that there isn't a crop box specified
- reviewing the Visibility Graphics tab to ensure worksets are visible within the new view

*Dimensions made during sketch mode for elements like floors or filled regions are exceptions to this rule.
