Wall Component Display Order

Let me preface my question by letting your know I am using AutoCAD Architecture 2009.

Is there any way to adjust the display order of wall components? We're primarily a structural firm, and occasionally put together general arrangement (faux architectural) drawings. I have a wall style with studs, interior sheathing and exterior sheathing. I would like the studs to float to the top for visual clarity on screen.

Thanks in advance,
Dan

I found it 2 minutes after I posted.

To anyone who is interested:

Select the wall
Right Click > Edit Wall Style > Display Properties Tab
Plan Style Override > Other Tab
Check: Component Draw Order by Priority

You'll then need to manipulate your component priorities to get the desired results.

Thanks,
Dan

This also helps for cleanups of different wall styles.

btw fyi there is a 'std' componant list for priorities in the help menu.
I would suggets it best to work with them since OOTB content would be as
well.
