Truss Webbing

Is it possible to have the spaces in between the truss webbing filled rather than that they are see through?  It would make cross sections so much cleaner when you don't see 20+ truss webs that don't align or are different shapes because of the roof outline.  Any suggestions on how to make a non back clipped cross section still look clean and not cluttered?  

Thanks in advance for any pointers.

What I do is pick a truss that is right in front of the cross section camera and name it cross section truss and turn of the truss layer.

That way I only have the one truss showing.

Hello Ken,

I had started doing that but with the plan I am working on has several cross sections and the trusses do not all go into the same direction so I was hoping that there would be a faster way.  Thanks for your help!

You can also just use the backclipped tool in each camera's dbx. set it to 20" or so and it will pick up 1 truss. there is also a framing backclipped tool to do it.

 That is what I was used to but I wanted to try to show more of the rest of the house with the current plan and thought to give it a try but maybe I need to go back to the old ways again.  Thanks!

Sorry I don't know what you mean.  Do you have X18 already? :)  I'm probably looking right at it but I don't know what tool you are talking about.

open up the camera dbx and you see the backclipped  adjustment and the framing backclipped adjustment checkboxes and amount needed area.
