Can Elements not on a Sketcher Plane be de-intensified?

Can Elements not on a Sketcher Plane be de-intensified?

Can Elements not on a Sketcher Plane be de-intensified?

(OP)
I am a former V4 user learning V5.

In V4, when creating elements on active plane, all other
elements in Space not on working plane were de-intensified and non-pickable.

Can this be achieved when working on Sketcher plane in V5?

It would greatly help visibilty!

You can make everything but the sketch look darker by clicking the option "Shade sketch plane" in Tools/Options/Mechanical Design/Sketcher.
