MX V8i SS2] CAD Environment - display order of an external references

Alek

When you have attached the reference to the drawing if you go to Setting on the Reference Manager and Select Update Sequence you can adjust what order to display the reference and the drawing it self using the arrow buttons.

You should look into the "Priority" attribute.  A numeric priority value may be assigned to an element, a level, or a reference file (or all three) and MicroStation will put the elements with the highest numerical priority values above/in front of all elements with lower values.  

It's actually quite an elegant system.

Hello Adam,

Could You tell me how to change this attribute? While opening "Element information" window there is no such attribute. In "Change attribute" panel this options is disable. I need to change something in settings?
