Not applicable
Something got changed in my elevation drawings and now when I go to plot everything through the window glass is visible in the back ground. How do I change it back to non see through windows?

Thanks!

Check your 3D window settings. They also effect your elevations.
I have assumed you are using 10.
If you add your OS and AC version to you signature it helps with a more informed answer

Set "Transparency in Shading" to Off.

EDIT: I just noticed Rod's post has an attachment. BUT, it won't load for me. I assume it shows the settings.

Yes it does Marc.
It has been quite a strange few days/week or so.
Link also reported the fact that attached pic/png/jpg files are no longer showing as before.
This time I too, cannot see my attachment which should show the 3D window settings you refer to.
Since the Admin did some work on the site a week or so ago things are not as they were.
Oddly on another associated forum all is ok when attaching pic of this type.

I do hope the Administrator reads this. It needs urgent attention.

Attached new png and now it is visible to me. How 70+ others have been able to view it is a puzzle.
