View filters on nested families?

Anonymous
Not applicable

If I have a view filter that applies to the nested family, but not the hosting family. Does the filter override the appearance only at the host level, and is this behavior controllable?

You have to make the nested family set to shared inorder for you to able to pickup those objects in the filter.

This response by @Anonymous  in the thread dealing with nested family visibility would also apply to graphic overrides:
"filtering away nested families without filtering away their parent families"

This video by @jagostinho74  seems to do what you are asking but the details are sparse.

"View Filters with nested shared families"
