In Underlays, you can view the other floors that exist. However, if you copy floor view (say for a Life Safety Plan) and you want to veiw the other Life Safety Plans, how can you add those views to the Underlay option. Can you? In other words, as far as I know, you can't view copied views as Underlays. Is this true?

Underlays work by Levels, not by views.

If you specify an Underlay of "Level 2" it will show the contents of what is between Level 2, and the next level above it (presumably Level 3).

If you want to see views underneath one another, put them on a sheet (i label some "sheets" as "workspaces" and set one of them to wireframe, or turn off floors, etc.) This works very well, except then the views arent "unreferenced" and the markers show up on plans, haha...
