I am working with design options on a project. I have the views set up to hide 1 design option and show the 2nd design option - however even though design option set 1 is not visible in the view, the geometry/walls from design option set 1 are cutting through the walls in the visible design option set; option set 2. So essentially, the set 1 walls are not visible, but creating voids in the walls of option set 2.

 I've tried cutting the geometry, using different wall joins, etc. Nothing seems to help the issue. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! Thanks -

I use design options a lot and I don't see your problem ever. 

Are you sure you have these set up right?  I wonder when you say "...I have the views set up to hide 1 design option and show the 2nd design option..."  If the DO's are in the same option set, the view shows either option 1 or option 2 .... not a hide option.

Sorry, I misworded my last post. I am not "hiding" the design option, I am using the settings in Visibility/Graphics to show one design option per Plan view.

The Design Options are in different Option Sets. I tried to have multiple options in 1 Option Set, but when I did that, every option in that set showed in the view, dispite V/G settings. Maybe having the DO in different sets is the issue ...
