Trace reference wall windows obscured

KeesW
Advocate

I am using an existing floor plan as a trace reference for a revised plan. The walls of the revised plan obscure the trace-reference wall windows so that I can't trace them onto the revised plan. I've tried making revised plan walls wireframe in the wall layer but it doesn't seem to work. Revised plan walls are composite types. Any suggestions?

Have a play with the buttons at the bottom of the T & R pallet.

You can bring the T & R in front, add splitters so you can compare the two views and you can also make fills transparent.

What I usually do is use a GO to make all my Cut Fills transparent.
