Does Nikon V1 provide focus assistance for manual lenses?

Does Nikon V1 provide focus aid like magnified view or edge highlighting when a manual lens (not autofocus lens in manual mode) is attached?

I have a J1, but Nikon firmware intentionally disabled the magnified view if a manual lens is attached or no lens at all. I don't know whether this is also the case in V1.

Added (1). If not, any new 1 series camera that have this feature?

You can call Nikon at 1-800-NIKON-US and speak with one of their product specialists.

Here's a link to Nikon's support page: https://support.nikonusa.com/...pp/contact

AFAIK, focus assistance is a dot and toot when you hit focus. I'm not sure what Nikon did with the V1 though.
