Hello All,
I'd like to hide some elements in attached files which is not in same level, the only way I know is to add them into an item sets and then set display off on this item sets.(Please let me know if any other way.)
It works fine with display styles which render mode is Wireframe or Shaded.
But it doesn't work with display styles which render mode is Visible Edges or Filled Visible Edges.
Is it a bug? Or how can I fix it? We need the display style Hidden Line(Visible Edges). Thanks a lot.
Hi Changsong,

I disagree that it's the only way. More standard way (because feature of DGN V8 format) is to group elements into Named Group, whereas Item Sets are functionality built on top of Named Group (and targeted to something different).
Alternatively, QuickSets can be used when working with Display Sets.

What exactly does not work? It's not clear from your screen capture, because no explanation what is expected and what is reality is missing.
Can you provide some example (even simple one)?

I tried to set Visible Edges when Display Set is active and it seems it works fine in V8i SS10, but I guess your data is far more complex.
With regards,

Hello Jan,
As you can see the picture, if change the render mode of current display style(everything else are same), the elements in item sets(display off) could be visible/disappear.
Have you tried same in SS10? Add some elements in an itemsets, activate it and set display off. Same as the highlighted parts in my picture? I have no other MS, not sure if it is a bug in SS3 only.
Thanks a lot.
