X-Ray in SketchUp makes all faces transparent so you can see through your model. Tip: In this mode, you can easily visualize, select, and snap to points and edges that would otherwise be hidden behind faces. However, you can’t select and infer faces that would otherwise be hidden. Faces cannot cast shadows in X-Ray mode, which is different from material transparency.
