Visibilities provide options to display model cutouts or specific components.
Defining Visibility Graphically via Menu or Buttons
To create a model section, select the relevant objects first. For this, you can use various functions that are described in the chapter Selection Options.
Then, the "Selection" list button provides various options to use the current selection for a visibility.
They have the following meaning:
- Visibility by selected and related objects: The selected objects are displayed, including their definition objects. For example, if you have selected a line, its points are also included in the section.
- Visibility by selected objects: Only the selected objects are displayed. The section shows the selected line without points.
- Hide selected objects: The selected objects are taken out of the display.
- Show reverse visibility: When using this visibility, the current display is reversed. The hidden objects appear as a new visibility.
- Cancel visibility mode: The visibility mode is closed and all objects are displayed again.
Transparency for Hidden Objects
In a visibility, the hidden objects are displayed with minor intensity. You can adjust the degree of transparency in the "Settings" tab of the "Program Options & Settings" dialog box.
