Roof Plan Display

I am having trouble with the display of my roof.

The roof is modeled but when I go to the roof plan everything is faded and hard to read.

1. Roof Boundaries are not visible.

2. roof Materials don't display

3. I would like a dashed line for the Main walls below the roof

4. I want to "display off" the slope symbols so they are harder to move and also get out of the way.

Sharing the screenshots of roof elements with settings done will be more easier to understand the issue.

Use the On Screen Display Option Roof Pivot Lines to hide the pivot lines, but they will still appear when the roof is selected. The length of the pivot line can be made shorter, and they can be moved, but keep them on the same line and angle so the roof slope and height are not modified.
