Visibility of nested outlet symbol in Specialty Equipment Family

I have a shared nested Electrical Equipment family inside a Specialty Equipment family. I want to control the visibility of the outlet family in plan and elevation separately. When I turn off Left/Right in Graphic overrides the Front/Back visibility will also be off. Anybody had such problems and sort out? Before I conclude it's sort of a bug. Thanks.

It is a wall based family. I have the same thing in a non face/wall based family and It doesn't have a problem.

Work correctly here. Did you have them turned on in elevation?

Yes, you need to turn off the Left/Right and load it to project then You wont see them in front elevation. I've checked on the visibility that's placed as instance parameter also.

What I am saying is I did do that, and the symbols show in Project Elevation.  

 

Check your VGO's in Project.

Did you uncheck the Left/Right before you load it. It is still not working for me.

Please see attached.

Well, it ain't replicable at my end, so I'm at a loss to explain.  Here's a list of 33 things you can check. Obviously, not all apply  -- but, I'm sure one does.
