Controlling the Display of Objects

Play VideoClassroom Design Project Training Video: Working with Layers and Layer Sets to Get the Views You Want

We have a roof on our plan, but in this tutorial we'll be working on the plan's interior, so we do not need the roof planes to show in floor plan view. As we learned in the previous tutorial when we turned off the display of attic walls, the display of objects is controlled in the Layer Display Options dialog. For more information about layers and using the Layer Display Options dialog, see "Layers".

To control the display of objects
  1. Select Tools> Display Settings> Display Options (or press the ~ key) to open the Layer Display Options dialog.
  2. Press the letter R, find the layer "Roof Planes", and remove the check from the Display column. While we're at it, let's also turn off the display of "Windows, Labels"and "Doors, Labels". Click OK.



    3. Note: Objects may be turned off and on throughout these tutorials to improve image quality.
