Visibility Parameter working in 3D but not in plan view

Hello, 

 

I'm having some issues with a visibility parameter. The element is invisible (as it should) in 3D but still visible in plan views. The visibility parameter seems to not be working in the plan view for some reason.

Would greatly appreciate some feedback on the issue. 

 

Thanks

I checked and it didn't really help. I tried building it from scratch and it still happens. Here is the family.

Suggest you investigate fittings by Wavin, they probably do what you want without you having to start from scratch.

Hello,

 

I changed the nested family to Pipe Fittings and checked Shared in the properties, which worked as expected.
