I have one exterior wall that is not visable in elevation or 3d view
but the window in the wall is visable

Perhaps you accidently clicked the view icon "eye" to be "off" and not to show the wall? (i.e. to "hide" the wall)

Can you see the wall from a camera view from inside the room?

I can see the wll with a camera view from the interior but not exterior

Have you accidentally set the wall texture to invisible or used Magenta (bright pink) as the wall colour? (the latter not likely I would suspect  ;) ).

Try changing the texture to see if it makes any difference.

Right click the wall, select Properties. On the Appearance tab you can choose the texture.
Sorry I cant look at the model right now as I am using a phone to reply. Will not be back at the computer for a few hours do will look at it then.

Hi Coyote.

Your roof overhang that extends to cover the front door is conflicting with the 'window' in the invisible wall. Drag the roof back so it's overhang is not in the window space and the wall will appear.

The gable end can be fixed by selecting and checking 'Display Gable'.

You will still have a portion of wall that is open on that missing wall, so I suggest you also check the box for Display Gable for that roof section and then select the 'invisible wall' and change it's properties from Auto Extend to Level (8').(Top Bottom tab)

Edit : after posting I went back to see why it happened... I was able to actually drag that roof back past the window and all worked fine. So by using display gable and level settings, you can move that roof section past the window area.
