Show hidden lines
In Revit 2015, we can set 3D view to show hidden lines. You can set “Show Hidden Lines” option to show it by discipline or set to All. If you set it to All, then it will ignore the discipline you selected.

To support this, now Revit has additional Hidden Lines sub category below these categories:
- Structural connections.
