Topography Surface Pattern by View Filter

[matthewstockRK49V]

Hey Everyone!

I'm looking for a way to control the surface pattern of a linked topography through a view filter. I'd like to show landscaped areas as green, but have everything else display as hidden line.

The closest I've gotten is to place a comment in the landscaped portion "LANDSCAPE" and then use a View Filter to override the pattern to the green color I'm looking for.

The problem here is that for some reason, I can't override the surface pattern, it only overrides the portion under the cutline, which is actually the portion I'd like to hide!

As you can see, everything north of the cutline, is shown as green, while everything south displays as hidden line. Below being my settings:

How can I make it show the reverse, with the green shown on the surface/projection, and cut not overridden?

Thanks!

Topo surfaces don't have surface pattern to begin with.  You could set the view to Consistent colors and show their Shading colors.

Huh, that's curious... Just another one of those Revit things that doesn't make sense I guess!

I think this is going to have to be the route forward in that case, I'll have to change the materials on everything else to white so that it displays how I'm looking for, but it seems to be the only option here.

Thanks for the insight!

Are the green portions Toposurface Subregions within the Link?  If so, what about this workflow?
