I want to change the settings when I use Clip Volume into Illustration, because when you have a coordination session for a building project, it is more clearly for other engineers/managers what they see on screen.
Is this possible?
Just to add to the discussion regarding the use of Clip Volumes in Bentley View CONNECT Edition. This option was added in Update 14 and is only available in the current session due to the design files being opened as Read Only.
Bentley View CONNECT Edition Update 14 (10.14.00.109)
Clip Volume ToolYou can now create a Clip Volume for the current session of Bentley View. This allows you to isolate and narrow the focus on a smaller region of the file that is being viewed. The clip volume is not saved when you exit out of Bentley View.

You've given me the solution, by asking when open a file it is read only. So I have to change this in the masterfile. And it's working. But I still think, the display style must be free to choose wether you are in all views or Clip volume.
I'm familiar with their use, but I can't think why you don't have the option to change the display styles for the clip volume planes
Yes they are read only. But can be presented in other display styles. But doesn't work with Clip volume. Clip Volumes is a very powerfull tool for coordination with other disciplines. Cause other platforms for BIM is a standard tool. And it is important for projectmanagers. They can use snipping of windows for solutions.
Are files opened in Bentley View always read only?
