How do I keep an aggregated object from hiding automatically in CATIA?

How do I keep an aggregated object from hiding automatically in CATIA?

How do I keep an aggregated object from hiding automatically in CATIA?

(OP)
I made a line. I made a point that is aggregated under that line as the start point. Whenever I modify the line, it hides the point. I need the point to stay visible. I even made a rule to say:

CODE -->

`Geometrical Set.5\Line.2\MOD_PT`.Show = `Geometrical Set.5\Line.2\Show` 


However, the rule doesn't keep the point visible. I tried a VB action, action, and knowledge pattern to keep the point visible, but since the action/kp/rule always is triggered prior to the hiding of the aggregated element, it will always be overridden by the automatic hiding of the aggregated point.

Is there a way to make sure an object can never be hidden in CATIA?
