Default line styles in Revit 2020

Why has the invisible line option been removed as a default line style on R2020? Will using a "white" colored line work when generating details? I presume this line will read white when overlaying other materials.

Invisible line type is still there. It is not a line type you can draw a detail line with (I don't think it ever has been, I only checked 2019), but is there when you use the line work tool or are creating a filled region, an edge can be set to <invisible>.

You could make a "white" line type to draw with and it would function like an invisible line to hide something when drawing with the line.

That line style has not been removed. It was not available for detail linework. Only for filled regions and families.

@loboarchbeat me by a matter of seconds. I shouldn't have answered that question from my colleague before posting.

Yes it is there; can't explain why I didn't see it after repeatedly looking for it. Thanks
