Just curious to see if there is another way that people prefer that is part of my new years resolution to reduce my work related production deficiency and stress as it relates to confusion.
Thanks.

I just use a separate layer and turn it on or off when I need it (with layer combinations).

If i want to show roof plan with site information, on the layout page i will usually place a copy of surveyor's drawing (or whatever site plan i am using) and place the 3d document drawing over it in the correct location.

Have you tried placing TWO "drawings" on the layout? One a SITE PLAN and another ROOF FOR SITE? The reason I still like this way is that you can individually mess with the pen sets....
Like Kombibob suggested

Now that I think about it if you get to a certain orientation with the camera to create the 3d document then there should be a option to make it look like a cool flat document even though it is 3d.
Also floor plans, sections, site plans, elevations, 3d should and are all different ways to look at information thus site plans should be looked at slightly differently than the rest? Maybe.

I have another issue with roofs in Site Plan. I create 5 .MOD because all the buildings have different story heights. When I placed them using the Hotlink Manager all the roofs going crazy moving up and down in order to have the Site Plan.pln story settings.
How can I solve this issue?
