Linked Revit Not Showing Imported CAD

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi!  This is a question that I have seen some answers to before, but still is stumping me.  I have linked a "Context" Revit model into my Project.  The context has some AutoCAD elements in it that do not show up unless you select Reveal Hidden Elements -- they then show up in pink.  In V/G > Revit Links for most views I can change the Display Settings from "By Host View" to "By Linked View" and the problem is solved.  But with one critical exception:  Perspectives.  The "By Linked View" option is grayed out.  My only option is to go to another view, select the Imported Revit, and Bind it to the project.  But that basically means my file gets significantly heavier and the project isn't linked to a context I really only need for perspectives.  

 

Any advice on how to show AutoCAD in a Linked Revit file in a Perspective without having to bind it to the project??

 

Thanks!

-Jon

Thank you very much.
I was searching for weeks for a solution, while just copying single imported CAD from one projekt to another.
