When using the Hide function, along with the options Delete Doubles/ Ignore Color, is there any way to set which line's color will be used for the hide? It seems to randomly choose which line's color to use. Around windows, it may end up being the window color, int trim color, ext trim color, or wall color. Coincident lines are a pain since they all get output, no matter which one is in front of the others. The program has to have some way of defining this other than randomly deciding. I just can't figure it out. Not using Ignore Color just ends up with too many lines on top of each other. A "Reverse Mask" function would be handy there. (Erase all colors, except the masked one.) Either way, I'm spending more time editing than I believe should be necessary. What else is new?
