Usually a sign of a Revit add-in causing a conflict. Disable All Revit add-ins and see if the issues persists. If not, you know one of them is the culprit and you can start re-enabling them one at a time unitl the issue repeats and then you know which add-in needs to be updated. If the issue does p…
