Partial structure display Snap

Hello everyone,

I wonder if there is a way when using Partial structure display - without finishes/core only option that your cursor doesn't snap to hidden skins of a composite wall e.g.

Thanks.

it might depend on your dimension settings & what it's set to (Outer Faces / Core Faces / Ref Lines)

screenshot below for 3 partial structure display views using Outer Faces in the dimensions. it only dimensions to the outer faces of whatever is shown in the Partial Structure Display.

the Core Faces & Ref Lines to the Dimension settings can still be useful if, say, you need to do wall setouts combined with a Finishes Plan, where you need to show all parts of a composite, which get called up in by labels, but also dimension the stud setouts & completely ignoring finish lining depths.

Thank you, it was a reference line location problem - wrong construction method.
