Displaying Hidden Objects

This task shows you how to display objects transferred to the No Show area.

  1. Display the same geometry as explained in Hiding Objects.

    In our example, the hood which was originally displayed is now in the No Show area:



  2. Click Swap visible space in the View toolbar to display the contents of the No Show space.

    The Robot disappears, thus indicating that you are in No Show space.



  3. Click Swap visible space again to return to the Show space.

    You can continue working on objects in the No Show space. You can also select objects and transfer them back to the Show space by clicking Hide/Show or by right-clicking then selecting Hide/Show.

    Important: When selecting multiple objects, all the selected objects are processed in one step and as a whole. There is no individual process, whatever the original space of each selected object. This means that all the selected objects are in the same final state:
    • if all the selected objects are in the Show space, clicking Hide/Show transfers them all to the No Show space
    • if all the selected objects are in the No Show space, clicking Hide/Show transfers them all to the Show space
    • if the multi-selection is heterogeneous, clicking Hide/Show transfers the selected objects either to the Show space, or to the No Show space ; the result is unpredictable.
