Section tool showing objects behind the walls

Hi,

 

I am strugling with a problem where I am trying to make a section and all the elements behind walls are being also drawn, which is something that I do not want. Especially the garage door at the very end of the building.

 Weird thing is changing any settings in "model display" has no affect on the display of the section. I thought perhaps it is a fault of "graphics overrides" but even when switched off the problem still appears. 

 

Eventually I thought my walls are transparent but I checked the material and surface and they do not have any transparency on. I even experimented with changing the wall materials without any resoult.

 

Lastly I thought it might be trace and reference but as you can see on the attached image this is also off.

 

I'd highly appreciate any help.

Hi!. Check that your layer combinations (and layers) are not set to "wireframe"
