Recommended test
Isolate an interior member and restore the complete model without deleting anything.
- Start Hide Tool and hide one obstructing wall or roof object.
- Use Object Groups to collapse a section and toggle one group off.
- Inspect the previously hidden interior member from two views.
- Choose Unhide all and restore the group visibility before saving.
Hide is temporary
Hide Tool changes visibility; it does not delete model geometry. Use it to see interior framing, simplify selection or prepare a drawing view. Because hidden state can be recorded by Project Planner pages, restore or intentionally save the desired state before capturing a page.
Object Groups
The model hierarchy groups generated assemblies and parts. Groups can be expanded or collapsed for easier browsing, and their visibility can be toggled together. This is faster and safer than clicking many related parts individually.
Restore the scene
The toolbar exposes Unhide all when hidden objects exist. Use it when you cannot find an object, when a quantity inspection appears incomplete or before a general export. A group that remains disabled in the hierarchy may still need its own visibility toggle restored.
Visibility and outputs
Visible state matters to viewport images, Planner pages and 3D exports. Cutlists and other derived information use model structure and metadata rather than merely the pixels on screen, but always validate the intended scope. If a presentation requires a partial assembly, save that as a deliberate page view rather than leaving the working model accidentally hidden.
