Hide an Object

You can reduce the visible geometry in the model window by hiding objects as follows:

  1. Move the cursor over the object.
  2. Press the H key.

You can hide objects even in the middle of a function.

You can hide the nearest layer from a wall or a horizontal structure as follows:

  1. Move the cursor on the layer.
  2. Press the H key.

You can hide several objects at a time as follows:

  1. Select one or more objects in the floor plan, model or object tree.
  2. Do either of the following:
    • Right-click to open the context-sensitive menu. Select Hide.
    • Press the H key.

Restore Hidden

Restore hidden objects to view. Do either of the following:

  • Right-click to open the context-sensitive menu. Select Restore Hidden.
  • Press Shift+Ctrl+H.
Note:
  • The hiding feature is intended for temporarily hiding objects during work when the building is open. If you want to hide objects permanently, use other hiding functions, such as hiding groups.
  • You can also hide the objects as follows:
    • Select the objects to be displayed in the model regardless of the object type and hide the rest, see Hide Unselected Objects.
    • Create a hiding group that may contain objects of any object type, see Create a Hiding Group. You can toggle the visibility of the group.
    • Hide all the objects of a required object type, see Hide Objects by Type.
    • Hide an object so that its geometry is visible only in the drawing but not in the model, or vice versa. See 2D/3D Presentation.
