Control fade

[Anonymous]

Hello,
Could you give me some advice?

Could I control fade volume? ---like [LAYLOCKFADECTL] or [XDWGFADECTL] in AutoCAD?

Now, I'm editing Floor.
When I entered in [Shape Editing] mode, The other objects become too faded and it is hard to see.
Could I control the fade?

I use Revit 2016.

Please excuse my poor English,
If you have any trouble understanding my English, please feel free to ask so I can clarify as best as I can.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated,

@ToanDN,

On white back ground, the text out of Floor are gone, and the inside are not changed much...

Are there no function on fade?

Change layer colour to suitable bright colour in VG. Imported categories, and CAD layers..

@Corsten.Au,

I know [V/G Overrides for Floor Plan] and
I changed color -- from dark color(e.g. blue) to bright one(e.g. yellow) -- but it still hard to see,,,

[Corsten.Au]

Text / Lines : Darker colour

Background : Lighter colour

you have to do some permutation / combination to get what you want..

( uncheck halftone if by mistake its on )

..

keep CAD in foreground if its linked or imported..

If CAD is linked, then you can fix the CAD file layers in Autocad

and reload in Revit..This is the best method to have full control over CAD layer colours and visibility.

best of luck

Cheers!

@ToanDN,

Depending on the situation, I use both of CAD import AND text and line.
Either one is fine, but Both are better.
If there are different way between CAD import AND text and line, could you teach me both of them?

@ennujozlagam,

Even if I change Transparency to 100, it's still hard to see,,,
The out side of Floor Boundary are also hard to see as in first picture of my post.

@Corsten.Au,

Even if I change the color combination clear to see with V/G or AutoCAD,
When I entered in [Shape Editing] mode, it's faded.

Couldn't I control the fade?

[Corsten.Au]

Can you edit it in Wireframe mode?

@Corsten.Au,

In 3D View with [Wireframe], it is same as in Floor Plans...

In Floor Plans/Structural Plans [Wireframe] is unavailable.
