REFERENCE DISPLAY OPACITY IN LAYOUT!

Recommended Posts

I am using the reference display option when displaying a proposed addition. My issue is the reference display opacity in elevations camera shows through to the existing building, see attached image. Is there any fix to this? It displays accurately in camera view but as soon as I send it to layout is displays as attached image shows.

Use a different rendering technique besides glass house.  But this is not typical Drafting standards to show an addition on a house.  Typically you would show an existing elevation and a proposed elevation on the plans (many AHJs request they be side by side or top and bottom on the same page). Showing the differences.  BTW overall consensus for best practice is to use plot lines to send to layout as they are cleaner and easier to read plans from.
