Problem

Can we apply Display Rules on Clip Volumes (Forward, Back, Cut, or Outside)?

Solution

Yes, we can via MicroStation's View Attributes > Clip Volume Settings.
These settings are helpful to filter elements on the cut plane from the Forward/Back or Outside graphics.

Background

Clip Volumes - A Clip Volume is used to limit the displayed volume in a view to a specific region. This is useful for working within a limited volume of a model without being hindered by geometry outside the region of interest. When a clip volume is applied to a view, only elements that are located within the clip volume will display, or can be snapped to, in that view. Each view may have a different clip volume applied.

Display Rules - A new enhancement made (beginning with CONNECT) to allow users to establish a set of display criteria for the design
