Hello,

I'm drawing a plan with a finished garden-level basement for the foundation. I have used pony walls for the basement walls which are 8" concrete on the bottom and 5.5" framed walls with siding on top. In the wall specification dbx, under display in plan view, I have selected "upper wall and lower wall" for my basement level floor plan saved plan view which shows the interior walls and finishes and things. I want to make a different "Foundation" saved plan view for the foundation and plumbing contractors with other information and without all the extra detail. In this view, I would like the pony walls to display the lower wall only (8" concrete). I don't think there is a way to do this because it looks like display settings need to be the same in all layer sets, but I thought I would put it out there and see how the rest of you might handle this scenerio. I tried making the wall a very light color in the foundation layer set, but it's not having the effect I was ideally going for. Thank you!

Don't change the setting in the wall dialog.  If you already did, then go and set them all back to "use default".  Then you can change the setting in the saved plan view dialog.

thank you! I'm always happy (and a bit embarassed) when there is such an easy solution to one of my questions.
