Hiding objects

If necessary, you can hide an object so that it will not appear on the screen and/or on a printout.

To do so, select the desired object and right-click to open the context menu. Select the last entry Properties to open the dialog box, switch to the Properties tab and proceed as follows:

If you disable the option Visible, the object will no longer be displayed on the screen.

If you disable the option Printable, the object will no longer appear in the printout.

Tip: If you have inadvertently made an object invisible, you can always choose the ribbon command File | Properties and enable the option Show invisible objects on the View tab. Now all hidden objects are displayed again. Thus, you can now select the object and enable the option Visible to make it visible again.
