Revit Topo - Section box and below ground patterns

Is it possible to turn off the brown topo patter below the ground when the section box cuts the model?

  • Do you mean to stop it from filling the basement? In such case you need to place a building pad at the footprint of the basement
  • Or do you mean entirely switch it off? 
    • One way is to Change the Poche material to Air and make transparent
    • Another is to make the Poche Elevation Base "0"

Edit: Seeing that tunnel in the image, building pad might not be ideal for that spot...and you might need something similar to what is discussed on the following Post

Thanks for the tip but I don't believe a building pad will expose the piles or the culvert opening. I did try this with the basement but that didn't help either even with a transparent material the cut topo shows. I really need to turn of the brown topo cut patterns to see what I need to present.
