Greyed layers in Viewports NOT wireframe.

[bc]

I guess after jumping into 2024 and realizing things remain the same, I'll bump this issue.

When I have a viewport and a layer within it is specified as "greyed", I want exactly that.  I want it to look like it does in top plan with all of it's 2D annotations, only greyed.

I don't want it to revert to greyed wireframe.  Why it can't is all part of the great mystery.

So pretty please and thank you.

You can hack this with various degree of success by using layer override colours. 
 

set the black line and fill squares to grey and most objects will respond. Not always all doesn’t change image based resources.

Thanks for that MATT I’ll check that out. So far, I’ve just been putting a poly around the plans and reducing its opacity, but I’ll check that out. Thanks again.
