Display underlay over background raster image.

Hello there.

I'm redoing some old projects in Revit, and I'm using a background image to vastly facilitate the process as the projects are almost perfectly drawn, I'd like however, to use a background image as reference and keep the underlay (e.g.: show the bg image for level 2 and over it show the level 1 underlay) but I couldn't find a way to do that.

Any help on this?

Thank you.

Note sure if it will work with the Underlay--but try selecting the raster image and then use Bring Forward

or Set to Foreground in its Properties.

In fact I think it should be the opposite (bring [the image] backwards) but it doesn't work, I think it's because the underlay isn't considered an "object" and is the de facto "background" of the view.

It was possible to workaround this issue by increasing the depth of the second floor view so the upper parts of the first floor walls become visible, but there are some snapping madness in this case.

Thanks.
