3ds max draw order?

good day po. is there a way to move back a reference plan (dwg) in 3dsmax like the draw order in autocad? because all my spline are behind the reference plan and when i want to modify and select a segments/spline, it's hard to tell which one are selected and which are not. TIA.

just simply select your reference plan and group it and move it back in 3D space... hindi po ito 2D katulad sa autocad na meron draw order, everything you do in 3dsmax is in 3D space ... hope naka help.

thanks teacher ed. ni-try ko narin po ito kaso im using 2d snap. kapag ni-move ko po sya back out of z plane, hindi ko na po sya mai-snap.

sir,just an advice, the best thing to do is to all items on 3d have its own layer name and to select it just go layer manager and its all there.hope it helps too..

use 2.5 snap para laging nasa Zplane sya .. kahit na naka 3D pa yang basta nasa TOP view ka 0 ang coordinate nyan...
