So I'm setting up some elevations and running into a problem:

The site is a topographic surface, and the building is cut into it. The building shape forces the elevation view away from the face of the building, and when I move it away it shows more of the topo than I would prefer and it ends up obscuring part of the building.

Apart from any obvious criticism about sloping a grade towards a building is there a way to correct this graphically?  Please take a look at the attached image.

 Thanks

Instead of using a building elevation, use a building section.  you can split that and drag the split on the one side closer.
