I am using the following workflow to setup drawing models and sheet models. But for some reason, I cannot get the sheet modelto synchronize with the building view. Only the drawing model with synchronize.1) I create a "building view" in a design model that has a couple of reference files attached.2) I create a drawing model which references my "building view" and set nest depth to 2.Synchronize with saved view is toggled "On". Everything shows correctly in drawing model.3) Then I create a sheet file and reference the "drawing model" that has my building view attachedas a reference and set my nest depth to 3. Everything show correctly in the sheet model.4) Now if I go to my design model and activate my "building view". Turn off some levels and update "building view".My understanding is these level on/off changes will propogate through design.
5) When I go to my drawing model with Building View attached the level off/on changes are visible.As mentioned Synchronize with saved view is toggled "On".6) Now when I go to my "sheet file" where the building view is attached via the Drawing ModelThe level changes are not indicated. The only way I can get the changes to show is to detach fileand reattach.My question is may workflow flawed by not attaching the Building View directly to myDrawing Model and my Sheet Model. Or should I be able to attach my Building Viewas a nested reference through the drawing model and still have the changes propogate to sheet model.Any Help would be appreciated.Thanks, Tom
I'm seeing some inconsistent results as well, though they don't completely match what you've described - I don't automatically see a change in the Drawing Model in the first place!
Tom, please file a new Service Ticket for this so it can be investigated further. I believe this is core DV functionality though, so go ahead and log it against MicroStation.
In the interim, as an alternative to detaching/reattaching the Drawing Model referenced into the sheet, try turning Live Nesting off and on. That seems to update things here.
Steve,
Thanks for the tip.
I will file a ST against Microstation regarding this issue.

Hi Tom,
You're welcome. There definitely seems to be something happening with DV synchronization when it comes to reference file levels, but what that is I'm not quite sure. But at least you should be able to "refresh" the Sheet without having to completely detach and reattach the Drawing Model. That way you don't lose any modifications you may have done to that reference attachment.
Been logged.

Thanks, Tom
Cool, thanks.
Has this problem been resolved, solutions, workarounds? Because I think I'm having the same problem these days...
