Hi everyone. I'm working now on renovation and I have a problem that I wasn't able to solve by myself and find a solution for it on the internet. The situation is that demolished walls in plan overlap and hide my furniture. You can see it in attached file. Is there any solution to make those walls transparent, so my furniture would be fully seen? I tried to make wall material transparent, then tried to put glass in Phases>Graphic overrides. Nothing helps. Now the only solution I have is to fix furniture with detail lines. Is there any solution to fix it not manually?I'm using revit 2013, if it makes any difference. 

Thanks.Andrius.

Typically, we don't show demoed walls in regular floor plans.

You should be able to set up a filter to make these walls transparent.  Or you can simply right click on them and make them transparent.

Thanks for your answer. Well, What filters do you mean? In phase filters there is only possibility to make it Not displayed, Overriden or by Category. And I tried to right click on it and there is nothing about transparency ;/

You can set up filters other than phase filters.  Read about filters in your HELP.

Obviously you did not right click on a wall segment, otherwise you would have seen the attached ... see the transparent button?
