I am currently working on a project where we have changed the levels of a site. 

When shown as a section cut wish to show the existing topography as a dotted line with the edited toposurface (graded region) beneath. 

The original file has been linked in and it is in this file (not the original file) which we wish to overide the graphics to show a dotted line.

When selecting the toposurface it does not allow us to orveride the graphics by element only by category. 

Is it possible to achieve this?

Yeah, there are various phases, however I am showing all.

I seem to be able to do it in another model, however this is directly within the model. I am trying to edit a model which has been referenced in.

Therefore I assume there is some difference between the ability to edit the graphics directly in a model and a model which has been referenced in. 

I just wondered whether someone had come across this?
