Filled region to masking region?

[patricks]

I created several filled regions on a roof plan. I'd like to change them to plain masking regions. Is there a quick way to do that?

The quickest way I know of is to use the copy, paste aligned function.

Select filled region and then edit so you are in sketch mode.
Select the linework and copy to clipboard.
Quit sketch
Select masking region
Paste aligned current view
Finish sketch

The filled region will be sitting underneath the masking region so you will have to delete it. Easier to delete the filled region earlier on (after quitting it - step 3)

ah I didn't realize you could copy the sketch lines between the different element types.
