[CONNECT] Raster sequencing 3D file with "Use File Order"

CONNECT Edition 10.13.00.48

We are currently transitioning staff from V8i to CONNECT and have been struggling with raster sequencing.  We use 3D files but use "Use File Order" in the Display Styles setting to override the display element elevations, using the reference file sequence order.  This always worked in V8i because the rasters were on the background plane and would remain behind all of the elements. 

In CONNECT, we are not able to get rasters to go behind other elements even when the raster is set the background plane.  If we unselect "Use File Order", everything seems to work as intended.  Going one step further, if we reference the raster (with file order selected), it seems to stay with the file order depth and not send the raster to the background plane.

We have found a workaround and that is to place the raster into a new model and then reference that model and sequence it to the bottom in the reference file sequence order.  Since we have literally thousands of v8 era files that use "Use File Order", turning that off to utilize a raster is not realistic plus it changes our file's look and that is not acceptable.  We also want users to stick to one version of MicroStation for drafting to minimize other issues.   

Has anyone came across this issue and is it a CONNECT issue or is it a setting or config I missed?

Thanks! -Brian
