Active View Visibility Dialog
If there are many objects, it may be easier to show or hide objects using the Active View Visibility dialog
- Click View > Visibility > Active View Visibility, or click the Hide/Show icon on the View, Draw, or Model ribbon tabs.
- Select the tab for the objects you want to show or hide. The dialog contains tabs for 3D Modeler objects, Color Key objects, Boundaries, Excitations, and Fields Reporter objects.
- For designs with large numbers of objects, you can resize the dialog for easier selection.
- By default, objects are listed in alphabetical order. You can invert the order by clicking the Name bar above the Name fields. A triangle in the bar indicates the direction of the listing.
- You can also use the Name field to type in an object name and apply the visibility via the Show and Hide buttons.
- Under the tab, clear the Visibility option for the objects you want to hide in the active view window.
The Active View Visibility dialog box appears.
The objects you designate are hidden.
Note: Hiding boundaries
also turns off a check for boundary overlaps during boundary assignment.
In the case of very large models with many boundaries, hiding boundaries
can prevent delays during boundary assignment. Full model validation
will subsequently check for boundary overlaps.
Object visibility is saved with the project.
