When placing a new slab on grade adjacent to existing slab the joint appears in halftone.  I do want the existing phase in halftone, but I want the joint to show dark (new joint).  Any ideas?

In plan view or section?  Your "joint" thats just a space between your new and existing right, you didn't use a detail component or anything to make the joint?  If its just  a space you will have to use the linework tool and change the ende of the existing slab to a darker color.  If this doesn't answer your question add some images for further clarify your problem.

The joint is at the interface between a new and existing foundation slab (model element).  It is a "cold" joint so there is no space between the new and existing elements.  I guess I want the darker lines to print over the top of the gray shade if possible.  I think it was possible in AutoCAD.  I have attached pdf views.

Thanks,

OK, thanks.  Was hoping there was a global setting for new/ex phases.

I might be missing something here. Did you take that sectional image from the 'snipping tool' or is that a PDF of an actual print ?

It may look wrong on screen, though the darker line will prevail when printed...I would have thought.

Cheers,
