Remarks

The AttributeHierarchyVisible element determines whether the attribute hierarchy associated with the attribute is visible to client applications. If this element is set to False, the attribute hierarchy can still be used to create user-defined hierarchies and can be referenced by Multidimensional Expressions (MDX) statements.

The elements that correspond to the parents of AttributeHierarchyVisible in the Analysis Management Objects (AMO) object model are CubeAttribute, DimensionAttribute, and PerspectiveAttribute.
