I need the background for informational purposes. Locations of equipment and
existing structure is essential for this project. I do not want to draw the
entire plant in revit to get a controlable background. The only views that
need the background is the plan and reflected ceiling views. Elevations,
sections, and details do not require the background.One solution I found was
to make fat lines from the wall lines. It seems to overwrite the background
lines. Not a elegant solution, but it seems to work. I feel that this should
be a simple click of a mouse button.
Maybe a simple "Sent to Back" draworder for imported backgrounds needs to be
on the wish list for the next release. Or an update for the subscription
base. Considering the amount of legacy drawings from the DWG environment
that will be used in the future, I feel this will be an mandatory
requirement. Many new projects are additions to past projects.
Thanks for listening.

Will turning off the DWG in the view help? If so go to Visibility Graphics
and on the imported tab turn off the layer or layers that are not necessary
to the view. Also, on this same tab are the visibility override controsl
for how lines appear in cut, projection and linetypes and colors.
