Item Sets in AECOSim were highly useful in creating sets of elements and being able to make the rest of the items in 3D views to be transparent, or isolate the item set, or show different Item Sets as different colors for showing 3D graphical representation of changes.
Item Sets were removed in OpenBuilding Designer....closest i can see that USED to be Item Sets are now Named Groups but with limited functionality. Displayset is just a way to isolate.
Did "Item Sets" get moved/renamed somehwere that I just can't find it?
Hello Michael,
Itemsets were a microstation functionality, which got revamped as Named group. So you are correct on named group. But that is also true that some of the functionality has been removed too.
The visibility functionality has now been named as display Rules. which can be seen if you search for apply display rule. What this does is with the help of properties it creates a grouping and then apply the rule on those elements only.
Hope this helps you answer your query.

I thought Named Groups where older? It has been there for a while.
I like them also as you can use a NG for attaching a reference (you only se the NG in the reference). And they work well with View Sets.
