Allow normal lines to overwrite halftone lines

Is is possible to force halftone lines to always be 'under' normal weight lines? Or to allow the normal weight lines to show through the halftone lines (similar to the 'Multiply' setting in Photoshop layers)?

 

I am trying to show floor slab but would like to show my walls on top of it.  I could run around and select and show linework, but the halftone walls read pretty well, they just cover up my slab edges.

You can do this through the View's Visibility Graphics Overrides.

Revit always prints PDF with half-toned over full-toned lines.  The only way I have found is using Bluebeam PDF and set the output to Line Merge.

That’s what I was afraid of.  I think the line merge option is only available in the plugin settings, not the PDF printer settings.

 

Time to explore another technique...

No. It is available with the normal PDF printing. I can show you when I get to the office tomorrow.

The options is right in the dialog when Bluebeam asks you where to save the PDF to.

That works if you use the Save As dialogue, and I knew it was in that location.

 

I use RTV Xporter with auto file naming.  I was hoping it was a setting in the Bluebeam admin panel or in the printer settings themselves that would allow it to default to the merge setting.  I didn’t see it when I was looking.

That dialog is from the normal print (CTRL+P) command. It is the second dialog, after I clicked OK button from to print.  I can see why it doesn't work if you choose to auto naming and saving the output PDFs.  The dialog only appears when you set to Prompt PDF file name and location from the Bluebeam PDF preferences.

I do not have the bluebeam add-in in order to do the Save As. I use Bluebeam Revu x64, by the way.

Setting to merge lines makes lines show through opaque text. Is there another option or setting?
