See Attached Image - Using Conceptual View, I have hanger plates that intersect an arch, and previously where they intersect you couldn't see inside the arch just the surface. Since saving as another drawing to add hangers details something has changed in the display and the arch appears transparent at the moment so you cant see where along the plates the arch intersects. See attachment.

 

Unless you zoom right into the intersection, the surfaces appear and zoom out and it goes transparent again.

 

Please tell me there is a simple fix for this.

You should check the values of the VSFACE... system variables. in particular, VSFACEOPACITY. For a detailed explanation of these and other system variables that control the visual appearance of 3D objects, you can read the handout for my AU2012 class.

You can find the PDF file at https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B9W7tCC4QFV7blpRcExhRkxvS3M
