Re: I cannot see the color of the rooms when rooms overlap. Why?
Overlapping rooms are displayed in the order they are created. In the 3D view, the result is that the most recent room will cut the oldest rooms as in the attached example.

This rule doesn't work when second room created in closed loop of walls

You'll always see overlapping rooms In the plan view because rooms are displayed with half transparency there. The rule in the 3D view is different.

The problem is on plan view, not 3D
Half transparency works good for rooms, drowen outside the walls or at least partly, with one angle outside (red ! on picture). Other rooms fully transparent, it is quite annoying problem when try to show how the building is situated on the garden plot.

If the mixing of rooms colors / textures doesn't give a good result, you should draw a garden which doesn't include the house surface.

Re: I cannot see the color of the rooms when rooms overlap. Why?
I tried draw garden around the house, but there are extra lines arise in plan view, and after each move or rotation of garden to change house position you need to correct garden nodes. That,s why I prefer my method from message http://www.sweethome3d.com/support/forum/view...,11526_lastpage,yes#53633
If all rooms behave on plan view similarly, with half transparency, regardless of whether they are drawn inside or outside the walls contour - in would be very nice and predictable.

Re: I cannot see the color of the rooms when rooms overlap. Why?
Ok I got it. Actually there are two bugs. The first one doesn’t update the plan drawing when the user changes the visibility of the floor or ceiling of a room. The second one is about the sort order in which floors and ceilings should be drawn. I’m going to fix them.

Re: I cannot see the color of the rooms when rooms overlap. Why?
Sorry guys, but what you say, that most recent room will cut the oldest rooms it's not true, and I can prove it. Problem is reproducible. I deleted all rooms and created them in order, the room that I want to be below first then the smaller rooms that I want to be on top later. I applied different textures but still the older, larger room appeared on top covering the smaller ones, created later. You should have a right click menu option "bring up" or bring down
