Display options in section

Is the display option supposed to work in section. I am cutting through several materials in the same plane and want one certain material to be out front.

It seems one or more lines of the that certain material will disappear no matter if I move the material to the front and others to the back. Also have two fills showing up one over the top of the other (top one is transparent) ((may be the answer there?))

Any suggestions for an easy way to accomplish this?

Should be the same as in plan view. Select the one you want out in front, right click move that one to the front. I believe that works in section as well.

What are you cutting?

Are you cutting a single object e.g. a wall; or are you cutting several? Do you have more that one object 'stacked' by accident (this causes funny display problems).

More specifics - and you'll very well get an excellent answer
