Levels or Views in Microstation

Levels
Levels help you separate graphics in the design file and for plotting. By placing your graphics on different levels, you can easily control what graphics to display by turning the appropriate levels on or off. Levels are synonymous with layers in AutoCAD.

Levels are named and numbered and you can then turn levels on or off by name or number. There is no limit to the number of levels you have in a design file. The level on which you place graphics is known as the active level. When you set a level active, it is automatically turned on.





The Level Display is used primarily to turn levels on and off in the views selected. You also have the option to turn levels on or off by selecting an element (right-click <R> on a level or click the Change Level button). There are three display modes:

View Display – turns levels on/off in the chosen view(s).
Global Display – turns levels on/off in all views.
Global Freeze – elements in selected view(s) are not displayed, cannot be
plotted and graphics cannot be placed on a frozen level.
