Can you use Clash Detection on nested references in OPM?

Question

I set up my Projects using nested references, divided by discipline: 
 Example: 
 
 I) Project.dgn 
 1) Arch.dgn 
 1a) A-BLDG-1.dgn 
 1b) A-BLDG-2.dgn 
 2) Elec.dgn 
 2a) E-TRAY.dgn 
 2b) E-CONDUIT.dgn 
 3) Mech.dgn 
 4) Struc.dgn 
 
 etc..... 
 I'm trying to run clash detection, but under the References tab, I only see my active file, and the top-level Project.dgn file that is directly referenced into my active file. 
 Is it not possible to run clash detection on nested references?

Hello Mike, 
 
 I just tested, clash on nested ref files can be detected. Both items are in nested ref files in my case. 
 
 Under the references tab, yes it will list the top-level references only, but all nested ref under the top-level reference will take part in the clash detect. If you just need part nested ref, you should use other criteria to achieve your goal. Good luck~
