Hiding and Showing Views

You can hide an entire view while working on a drawing. Once hidden, you can display that view again.

When you hide a view that has dependent views (Detail, Section, or Auxiliary views), you are given the choice of hiding those views also. When you show either the parent view or a dependent view again, you are given the choice of showing the related view also.

To hide/show views:

  1. Right-click the view on the sheet or in the FeatureManager design tree, and select Hide.

    If the view has dependent views (Detail, Section, and so on), you are asked if you want to hide the dependent views as well.

    To see where hidden views are placed on the sheet without displaying them, click View, Hidden Views. The boundaries of hidden views are displayed with an X.

  2. To show the view again, right-click the view, and select Show.

    If the view has dependent views (Detail, Section, and so on), you are asked if you want to show the dependent views as well.
