    Problem

    Why does View Display require a saved setting, but changing global display does not.

    Solution

    Global Display is a Level attribute, which is a file setting (other
    examples of a file similar to placing a line, attaching a reference,
    etc.)

    View Display is a view attribute (other examples of a view attribute:
    zoom level, grid display, etc.)

    File properties do not require a save settings, however view attributes
    have always required a save settings.

    Before MicroStation V8 , display of the levels were exclusively
    controlled by a view attribute, so it was always known to perform a save
    settings, to retain level display values after the file is closed.

    Note:

    Before MicroStation V8, reference levels were controlled through the
    reference data, which was in a file setting. So changing the level
    display of a reference level did not require a save set ting to retain
    display values of a reference level after the file is closed. This has
    changed in MicroStation V8. That is, the reference level display mask
    data is controlled in the same manner as the active levels, thus
    requires a save settings to retain display values after the file is
    closed.
