Here's what I'm looking to do.  I have a wall that consists of metal studs, rigid insulation, and brick veneer.  My plan view and section detail levels are set to medium.  In plan view I want each of my wall cut patterns (all 3 are different) to show up, which I've accomplished.  In section view I want all my wall cut patterns to show up except the metal stud pattern.  The only way I've found to do this is to create a masking region over the stud area.  Is there some kind of setting that I am not seeing or any better way to accomplish what I'm trying to do?

You can over-ride graphics in view by element and turn off all the cut patters for a wall.  The key here is ALL.  You can not turn of single layers.

That's what I was afraid of (ALL).  Thanks for the info.
