My friends

I have a 3D grid structure modelled in Autocad. That is, there are X planes, Y planes and Z planes (elevations).
The only way I know I can view each single plane is by placing each in a separate layer, lock all then unlock the one I want to work with.

Is there a better way you know?
Sectioning does not seem to work since it creates a block. I aim at controlling what I see on the screen and work on it.

Thanks for your time,

IJR

Look into creating "Layer States" and "Named Views". It should shorten the process a bit for you.
 
you can use 3DView and adjust the front and back clipping planes
