Does anyone know how to get rid of the lines that represent the different materials of a wall? The attached image is of a (2) 2x6 wall with a 17 1/2" air gap. Currently the lines for the air gap are showing. Is there anyway I can modify the settings of the wall so they don't show up? I tried merging the regions, but all it did was combine the materials. I would like to keep the materials separate. (I'm using Revit 2012)

 

Thank you!

Each layer of the wall will be represented in medium & fine plan views.  You can use the line tool on these in each view and change them to invisible lines but this is only useful for a few instances..

You should also be able to go to V/G and change the wall category to Coarse in the view.

Do the following:  select visibility graphics overrides for said view, then select the Cut Line Styles checkbox.  Then select the edit button, pops up a dialog box from which you can control the lineweight of each layer, based upon its number, i.e.- [1], [2], etc. 

Oops, this is if you WANT to show the lines as different line weights, misread your question!
