Forwarded: Add a button to make buildings invisible/transparent

I'm sure we've all accidentally sold something behind a building without reading the sell dialog. Only to find, oops, wrong building.

This idea of making a building invisible is pure genius. +1 from me.

+1 - I've already got to the stage where reconfiguring my city reveals spaces I didn't even remember I had because they were hidden by bulky buildings..

Big +1 - though there could also be an extension where buildings went transparent automatically when a building was being moved or placed

Anything to allow seeing the city layout and moving things around would be great.

Even a button to swtich/toggle all bldgs to sticks mode would be great & probably easy to implement!

What I would like to see would be something akin to this picture. Maybe add a fourth button next to the Sell, Move, Do Nothing buttons that appear while in build mode. Clicking said button toggles the display from the normal build display to a "flat" view of the city. The color scheme I used is random. The thought is different colors to help differentiate types of buildings (with tooltips still fully identifying any building that is hovered over). Text displayed is for visual clarification of this idea and not intended to actually appear in the game.

+1 from me.

Rearranging city layout would be so much better of we could just see the footprint and name of each building along with the roads. Today is my first day of forum posting ... I wish I'd been here earier. I've been playing since November 2016.

HUGE +1 for me, not having this already implemented causes me continual pains in the area I sit upon whilst playing FoE

The alternative could be a 2D satelite view of the city.
