So a colleague, who had a plug-in in her MicroStation for Autodesk Vehicle Tracking, drew a bunch of car parking spaces in MicroStation. I do not have the plug-in and she can not longer access the design file.
There are lines, probably created by the plug-in, on a level called BayConstruction, that can not be seen or selected while I am in the design file. They are visible however, in live drawings. The weird thing is, they cannot even be turned off in some of the live drawings.
How can I delete them?
Which version of MicroStation are you using? If the file is coming from this Autodesk Vehicle Tracking software it is probably not a plug-in as such. This software is producing files that you appear to be wanting to view and edit in MicroStation, I assume, which are most likely DWG format files. Can you clarify your situation a little.

I'm using MicroStation V8i SS4. I tried opening the same file in ORD, and the problem was still there.
So the original car park design file is in DGN format.
Vehicle Tracking lines were added in via either of the following two methods.
1. My colleague's Vehicle Tracking added lines directly into the car park design file within MicroStation session - similar to how Transoft AutoTURN acts as a macro within MicroStation.
2. My Vehicle Tracking added lines into a DWG file, then the DWG file was referenced and copied into the original car park design file.
I'm wondering if I can see those invisible lines, if I open the car park design file in AutoCAD; and if I save the file again in AutoCAD, does it mess up the DGN in some way.
It is difficult to know how this third party vehicle tracking software is dealing with the placement of these elements. It would be much better, as Barry Lothian mas mentioned, if you could supply the related design file(s), whether they be DGN or DWG.
