Hi,
I have a active file with a master ref file attached to it.
The ref file is set with: Live Nesting 1, and Display Overrides to "Never" so I can use the ref file level setting to control my level display in the active file.
But for some reason I'm working with this active file, and when I go to turn-off a level in the ref it's not turning off in the active file.
Am I missing something, I thought if you set a ref with "Display Overrides to Never" the ref control the level display in the active file..Please help
Thank you,

If I have a nested ref file attached and in the ref manager near the bottom rhs there is a level overrides set to never..
When this happens I cannot turn off display of any levels, change attributes etc by level or by overrides to any ref file in te nesting or the ref file either..
BTW I hate that!
I have to go to the nested file it self and make sure the same overrides set to never is set to always and then turn off etc in the nesting .. then retunrn to my original active drawing forth changes to take effect...
So I dont think the button means overrides in the sense of by use of level overrides but either never allow to make changes to levels and attributes or always allow changes...

Yet another problem with nested in sheet model with set to never for level overrides
using projectwise may also complicate this...
I have mixed format DWG and DGN not my preference but client is the client..
I go to the nested file has DWG attached I want to edit some text there .. no problemo just use activate
make the changes and deactivate save setting and reopen right ? Wrong no changes happened to stick!
I had to go back and repeat the process and do a save file for changes to stay there while in DWG mode , save settings didnt cut it ..
But just in case I opened next time another one with exchange did the changes and saved all good but this was a real time waster!
I processed about 5 drgs before I notices the pdfs had no changes!
Well live and learn and watch out for DWGs ion your nestings... also level colour changes didnt stick first time round through the activate save settings... for DWG..
Well that's what it looks like was happening never struck this before normally I avoid nesting DWGS in with DGNs in nests with lots of ref files...tends to make network run real slow to open your dgns........
