Cannot Change Level Display in DWG Reference

Question

Hi Everyone, 
 
 One of our users has reported an issue while attempting to adjust the level display of a DWG reference file. 
 All the reference levels are grayed out and cannot be adjusted. This occurs when the DWG file is attached 
 to another DWG file. If the DWG file is attached to a DGN file there is no issue and one can adjust the DWG 
 reference levels display. This happens in Microstation SELECTseries 4. 
 
 Any ideas? 
 
 Regards, 
 Benzi

Hi Andrew, 
 Thanks for the tip. I tried adding this line to our UCF: 
 MS_LEVEL_EDIT_NESTED_ATTACHMENT_LEVELS = 1 
 but noticed the same behavior. Then I found this line in the UCF file: 
 MS_LEVEL_EDIT_ATTRIBUTE_LIST = 
 
 I defined this to prevent users from modifying active or library level attributes. 
 Apparently it denies any change to level display also. So I redefined it to be: 
 MS_LEVEL_EDIT_ATTRIBUTE_LIST = GlobalDisplay
 
 And the issue has been resolved. I still do not entirely understand why this happened 
 only when a DWG was attached to another DWG.
