Is it possible to change the default Display Order

Marcus Trimble

Is there any way to change the default display order?

Currently, annotations and 2D elements are drawn below 3D elements, fills and zones.


This means that every annotation arrow and text item I draw over say a roof with a fill, is, by default, drawn below the roof fill. This is very frustrating and time consuming.

The way that I work, I would like text and 2D linework to be drawn over the top of everything else by default.

Is there any way to do this?

See this for the default display order listing:

I'm not sure what's going on. My experience is that the default order is to place annotations on top. AFAIK there is no way to change the defaults.
