I know that for the past several releases, the only way to crop irregularly-shaped (i.e. non rectangular) interior elevations has been to use a masking region with the appropriate linework. Is there a way to more efficiently do this in 2010? I haven't been able to find a way, but this old workaround is rather time- and labor intensive. Thanks.

The workaround you use is what I've done on EVERY interior elevation, not just the irregular shaped ones. It doesn't seem to take that much time if you do them all at once.

Activate view
Click masking region
Draw one big rectangle
Draw one snapped to the wall, ceiling, & floor
Highlight interior lines
Change to preferred line weight
Done
Deactivate view

How many steps would that be in AutoCAD? :)
