We've tried turning off the Floor Edge in VG with no luck. Any ideas how we can hide the floor edge without turning off the entire floor?

There is no setting for turning off the floor "outline". However you can use the linework tool to make those edges you don't want to see "Invisible". This works well for a handful of edges.

A "trick" that might work would be to override the floor projection style and set it to white.

Out of curiosity, why don't you want to see the floor edges?

Yeah we'll have to resort to the LW tool. We tried to override the floor projection style and set it to white but the edges of stairs disappeared too.

We have conditions where the structure of a floor transitions but the floor pattern continues a few feet before transitioning to another floor pattern.

I havent tried this but under "settings, object styles" select "Floors" and expand floors and you will see several categories, one is called "common edges", perhaps if you set the color to white the edges wil go away.
