Under Settings -> Tabbed page Classification > List field selection @CNS > Geometrical Properties class, the CNS_NOSECTION feature can be set to Yes.

Note In exceptional cases, Consulting can step in via configuration file and so declare certain directories/projects in this way. Local changes in the project file are not target-aimed, because these will get lost at next catalog update. Changes should be performed centrally during modelling process.

Important Information for existing customers when updating to V12: An update of the CNS classification and the affected catalogs is mandatory.
