Can anyone tell me if you can have your Underlay turned on in a soft grey so that it is less visable ?

The normal behaviour of an underlay is to be ghosted out at 50%. There are some other settings you can play with though. From the Revit help file:
Display Model:
Hides the model in detail view. The Normal setting displays all elements normally. It is intended for all non-detail views. The Do not display setting shows only detail-view specific elements. These elements include lines, regions, dimensions, text, and symbols. Elements in the model do not display. The As underlay setting displays all detail-view specific elements, while model elements appear dimmed. You can use the underlay model elements as references for tracing lines, dimensioning, and aligning.
Underlay:
Displays another slice of the model under the current plan view. That slice of the model can be from above or below the current level. The underlay appears dimmed and is visible even in hidden line. The underlay is useful to understand the relation of components on different floors. Normally, you would turn off the underlay before exporting or printing the view. You set an underlay by specifying a level. The slice of the model between that level and the next level up displays.
Three of the underlay options, Current Level, Level Above, and Level Below, are relative to the current level. All other choices are absolute.
TIP: A level that is actually higher than the current level can be the underlay view. For example, the basement level could have Level 2 as its underlay.
Underlay Orientation:
Controls the display of the underlay in hidden line mode. If the value is specified as Plan, then the underlay displays as if you are viewing it from above, like a plan view. If the value is specified as Reflected Ceiling Plan, then the underlay displays as if you are viewing it from below, like a reflected ceiling plan.
