In this video I will tell you about hide and isolate options of Autocad.
So here we have the simple drawing.
Now let's say that we want to work on certain parts of the drawing.
And for that we need less crowded drawing.
So in that case you can hide some of these objects from their drawing area and you can work on the parts
which you require.
And later on you can restore the visibility of those and parts.
So obviously you can do that using LEDs but that's a selective process which involves turning on and
off.
Certainly is.
But if you don't want to involve layers you can directly use the hide and isolate options Don visibility
of certain objects on and off.
So I'll explain it using this drawing.
So in this case let's say that we want to hide all of these dimensions and also some of the extra annotations
which are present in this drawing.
So for that I also like the damage in first and then drive click and select this option select similar
so that will select all of these dimensions.
Now click on this ground level text and right click select the same option it will select all the text
and also select these objects from our drawing area.
Now these are the objects that I want to hide.
Now in order to hide them simply right click anywhere.
Select this isolate option and now select hide objects.
Now the objects are hidden obviously the objects are not deleted.
You can restore them back whenever required when the editing is done.
So in this case let's say that we want to add a new geometry here.
So I'll go to the circle tool and I'll add a new circle here.
Now we want to bring back all the objects so that once again right click anywhere.
Go to the isolate option and select this option and object isolation.
And we have all the objects back in drawing area.
Now if you want to work on certain objects and you want to redeem them instead of hiding them and you
want to hide all of the other objects from your drawing area you can do that as well.
So in this case let's say that we only want to work with this circle and with this line.
Now rest of the objects we don't want here we want to hide them.
So select the objects that you want to retain then right click go to isolate and select isolate objects
so that will help you in retaining those objects and rest of the objects will be hidden.
Now let's.
It is the circle and that will bring back all the objects so simply right click select die select option
and select and object.
Isolation and all of these objects are back in the drawing area.
Now you can do the same thing using the hide and isolate status bar option.
So here we have this hide and isolate option so you can click on this hide isolate option and select
hide or isolate too.
But before using that you need to make a selection.
For example let's say that we want to hide all of these damages so I selected dimension.
Right click and select this option select similar that will select all the damages.
Now go to this option to isolate objects and select hide objects and they are ignored in order to bring
it back.
You can again go to the same state as bar option and select this and object isolation.
So click on it and the objects are back in the drawing area so you can use any of these methods either
the right contextual menu or the status bar icon.
That depends completely on your preference.
So this was all about the hide and isolate options of Arctic and.
