Over the last couple weeks (maybe since SP6 or SP5) I have been experiencing similar issues in VW2023.
Doors seem to be removing some, but not all, wall components:
In 3d shaded views, components are missing ^
In top 3d shaded view, components are missing ^
In section viewports, components are missing ^
In plan view, everything appears as it should ^
The issue sometimes goes away if I edit the PIO without changing anything as a force "reset," however, when I refresh a section viewport, the components once again disappear.
Oddly enough, this type of behaviour has extended to structural elements as well:
In 3d views, structural members are missing ^
If I select all, they are still present ^
In wireframe, they all appear ^
As above with the doors/walls, forcing a "reset" on the PIO by entering the edit style sometimes works, but not always.
Walls also regularly disappear in section viewports and a "reset" is also required of them.
All these "resets" when you have ±40 wall styles takes a considerable amount of time but seems to be the only thing that temporarily "works."
The significantly frustrating part of the above issues is the massive amount of time that now has to be spent fixing viewports to get them anywhere close to being legible and ready for publish. The 3d/modelling aspect of the software has been great. However, when getting the model into the documentation stage and on sheets for publishing, the software is bordering on being completely unreliable and has me contemplating switching back to a 2D workflow where it was at least "what you see is what you get."
Fwiw, the same file has been tested on multiple machines in the office with the same results. I sure hope these issues get addressed asap.
