I've placed my elevation tags on the plan on a street between two buildings. I want the elevation to display the building the tag is pointing at, so I've placed the blue line right along the wall. I've place the dashed green line behind my building to crop out some of the background. As far as I can tell I've done everything correctly. However, when I open my elevation view building behind the tag are displayed consequently blocking the elevation of the building I want to see. Could it be related to the fact that the context building were imported from an Autocad file? They were all exploded to 3dfaces becuase the 3d extrusions kept crashing my computer.
It seems like it shouldn't matter how the other building were constructed... if the elevation tag is placed between two objects the one behind the tag shouldn't be displayed. Any help anyone can offer is greatly appreciated.

you can put the tag anywhere you want, the elevation will show anything infont of the blue line, make sure your line is in the right place.
what do you see when you look at it in 3D? what happens if you hide imported dwg? maybe bring the crop line foward a bit...

I ended up geting a little creative and changed the visibility of the .dwg object. Neither the section or the elevation method eliminated the buildings (behind the tag) from the view. I assume it must have been the fact that I imported the context model from an Autocad file. Revit and Autocad don't play as well together as Autodesk would like you to believe.
Thanks for the suggestions.
