No underlay under floor

Hi,

 

I have a question! Is it possible to turn off underlay under floors? If I create a room on level 2 I can see whole level 1, which is nice, but when I draw a floor on level 2 I can still see everything under it.... Really annoying, to see walls and furniture from level 1 on level 2, but nice to see furniture and wall and roof of level one, which is outside, like balcony.

 

So does anyone know how to do this?

 

Kind regards,

Bram

Hi barthbradley,

 

Thanks for the reply, but that is not what I meant. If you do that everything is gone! I only want to hide what is under a floor or roof. Is that possible?

 

Thanks,

Hi Bram,

 

Underlay is made to help you draw.

 

If you want to make things "beyond" visible, you need to use the view range.

In your view range settings, set bottom to your level +0, and the the view depth to unlimited.

 

Then in visibility/graphics properties of your view, just change the <beyond> lines style (color > grey) and everything below your main view range will display that way!

 

Cheers,

François

You can do that by creating a masking region. If you want to hide the boundary lines of the masking region, you need to select the lines before you finish the sketch and set their line styles to <Invisible Lines>.

Mmmm yes but then no 3D geometry remains visible... only annotations would remain...

Is there a similar solution for the fills below the View range (outline is grayed out, but the fills are the same)?
