Hide Cover Fills for Slabs on Stories Above Current

Anonymous
Not applicable
Regarding slabs on upper stories that are set to show up on lower plans -- e.g. an upper floor deck that you would like to show dashed in on the ground floor plan. Currently, if you've given the slab a cover fill to show its material, that fill will also show up along with the dashed perimeter on the lower stories. It would be SO much appreciated if the cover fills on slabs would be omitted from any "below home story" plan views.

Currently my workaround is to use flat roofs instead of slabs in these situations, as roofs allow you to alter the Floor Plan Display to "Project with Overhead". This function hides the cover fill in its display on lower levels, doing exactly what I would love slabs to be capable of.

Thanks!

Have you tried the "Edit Custom" settings for the slab show on storeys settings?
