3D visibility settings

June 22, 2011, 05:32 PM

In a 3D view (largely an elevation) I've got a surface and stepped concrete walls - SOME of the foundation walls trim to the surface (don't show below it), others do continue to display under the surface, with a different color. Can't figure out what I did right, or wrong. Also the 'horizon' generated by the 3D view is below the surface, the surface actually casts a shadow on this 'horizon'. Can I override or manipulate this horizon?
thanks, Will

hmmm - I just generated a NEW 3D view and all walls are trimmed neatly to the surface - so maybe my problem is one of updating my old 3D view, or undoing some override I inadvertently used -?
thx, wp
