TO MAKE A DEMOLISHED WALL TRANSPERANT GO TO PHASES UNDER SETTINGS, THEN GRAPHIC OVERIDES. THEN GO TO 'MATERIAL' FOR THE DEMOLISHED PHASE AND GIVE IT A COLOUR AND U CAN MODIFY ITS TRANSPERANCY.

REGARDS,

SOLUTION-

Go to Manage Tab > Phases > Graphic Overrides tab > change cut patterns to hidden / not visible

Then-

Go to view properties >

Visibility / Graphics > (or view template already applied to view)

Filters >

Create a new filter for walls, name it; Wall Demolished, Under Category tick Walls, Under Filter Rules; Select Phase Demolished, equals & new construction.

Add the new filter to the view / view template

highlight the Walls Demo filter in the list, check enable filter and visibility, CHANGE TRANSPARENCY TO 100%

RESULT in Revit 2022 = the outlines of the walls are shown but the core is now transparent.

I assume this works for previous revit versions too.
