    Ohhhh, never happened to me (yet) and it's good to know! Great tip for the day Chad

    Make sure you keep the new overrides a secret from your users! Ohhh boy....

    I've said from the start that the new element overrides/hiding in this version were going to be a problem is hunting down problems, and I can tell you that this one took me the longest.
    Being on the context menu, it aint going to stay a secret for long with new users.

    That's true. During Design and Documentation, I would gladly live without it. But during Construction Administration, that tool has come in handy several times to quickly hide some elements to make things clearer to the contractor, instead of having to type phrases in the comments field (or create a custom parameter) so you can use filters to control visibility. It just gets things done faster. So, I vote for a disabling mechanism of the element overrides during certain phases of the project

    Do you have select pinned objects checked (under modify button, top left)? If the view is pinned and that isin't checked it will appear that the view can't be selected at all
