Im working in prt. mode presently.
Imagine a solid protrusion(blue part in diagram), eg 70 length 15 dia with some patterned cuts around the edge (depth 5mm) in the top. In these cuts are positioned wires which extrude about 40mm(datum curves in diagram)
I want to be able to control these wires by putting eg a spacer (pink part in diagram) through the top of the wire, from here i can control height from the solid and location of the wires in space.

But..........
I want to create this spacer so it wont be shown on screen, but will still contain many refrence points and relations that i can still work from?
please help!
Can it be done by layers or , hiding individual components? not too sure on either though!
