Hello,

 

I would like to mask entire components in order to get insight into the underlying structures of my model.

I have the desired Option in the 'Delete' menu (F2). If I press the downarrow button I can select 'comp'.

This is not possible however in the 'Mask' menu (F5).

 

Any suggestions how to do this in an easy way?

 

Greetings

Niclas

    Hi,

    From the mask menu you can mask the elements using 'by collector' option, so that it is possible to mask individually.

    Else, press D in the keyboard which will open the display tab and uncheck the components or click on the components in the graphics area directly that you wish to hide.

    Thank you very much! That 'D' Option +graphics area was exactly what I was looking for!
    'By collector' is a little too much point and click.
