    Pen printing problems

    I am trying to print a layout page using a pen plotter. I need it to not print the exterior finishes ie the siding and sheathing or the drywall on the inside. Is there any way to turn off these in the layout view for floor plan only. I still want the siding to show up on elevations. Basicly I want it to just print the stud wall lines.

    You can get close to what you want, but not quite.
    You can turn off the wall layer lines. This will eliminate the lines between the studs, sheathing and drywall.
    Your wall will be the overall thickness of the finished wall including the drywall and sheathing.

    Select the border for the floor plan on the layout sheet.
    Select Show Items.
    Turn off the display of of Wall Layers on the Architectural tab.

    There is no way I know of to turn off the sheathing layers and leave the studs without redefining the wall.
