Description

The Std HideSelection command hides selected objects in 3D views.

Usage

  1. Select one or more objects.
  2. There are several ways to invoke the command:
    • Select the View → Visibility → Hide selection option from the menu.
    • Select the Hide selection option from the Tree view context menu. This option is not available in the PartDesign Workbench.

Notes

  • Objects nested in a Std Part, or a Std Link to a Std Group, or a LinkGroup, and features of a PartDesign Body, will only be visible in 3D views if their parent is visible as well.
  • If the visibility of a Std Group is changed the visibility of its nested objects will change accordingly. But their visibility can be changed independently as well.
  • The action of this command cannot be undone with Std Undo.
  • The visibility of an object can also be changed through its related DataVisibility property in the Property editor or the Combo view.
