Showing and Hiding Objects

Use

The 3D Objects list check boxes and right-click menu can be used to show and hide objects. You can also use the 3D viewport right-click menu to show and hide objects.

The Scene tree check boxes respect hierarchy if it is present. For example, clearing the highest check box in a hierarchy clears all subordinate check boxes.

  • Clear the objects’ check boxes in the 3D Objects list

  • Select the objects you want to hide, right-click in the viewport or over the objects in the 3D Objects list, and select Hide Selection to hide all selected objects

  • Select the objects you want to show, right-click over the objects or over the objects in the 3D Objects list, and select Hide Unselected to hide all unselected objects
