Is it possible to show only exterior edges in a hidden view, in MicroStation (Connect Edition)? That is to say, if you have a pipe with a thick wall, and it goes below another object, you only see the outside edges of the pipe; not the interior edges of the pipe.
I am fairly new to MicroStation, and can't seem to find the answer to this question anywhere.
Thanks in advance for your help

Please reveal the exact version number (e.g. v10.x.y.z) of MicroStation that you are using.
There's another Forum dedicated to visualisation, where you may find existing answers to your question.
The View Attributes dialog has a Display Style option button. Have you explored the possibilities there?

I am working on MicroStation CONNECT Edition Update 14 - Version 10.14.02.01
I checked some other forums, as well as the Display Syle options, but cant seem to find the solution. I must be missing something.
Post a small DGN sample here. People often are more willing to help if you supply evidence.
OK. I have attached a file, but it is really as simple as a slab and a hollow tube.
All I want to do is hide the lines highlighted in the screenshot below.
HiddenViewTest.dgn
like this?
turn off "hidden edges" switch in Edge Settings part of dialog.
screenshot is from V8i, but I guess CE has it similar
