Hi all,

Im currently working on Revit MEP 2015 and have been asked to create a series of 3d sectional views for a brochure highlighting our ductwork and electrical systems against the building model.

How do i adjust the transparency of both the linked building and structural models to say 50% when creating these sections so the MEP systems show more clearly?

Ive clicked on the linked models - overrides graphic in view - by category - surface transparency - option but it hasnt worked. The linked models stay the same. Please see attached dwg.

Any suggestions please?

Thanks

Andy
