#View Hidden IPAS
5 messages in this thread
How about someone creating a Viewer IPAS connected to the Unhide requester
which would display a Wireframe view of the selected object. This would be very
useful to me as I always forget what I have called various objects. When there
are a lot of objects in the scene it can be a real problem to unhide the right
one.
If such a product already exists, perhaps you could let me know.
It would be a trivial program to write for any IPAS developer who has our
Viewer library (in DL17), but it would only work with r4, because of API
support for Unhide in r4 but not r3, I think. (You'd have to check with Jonas
for details about that.)

Actually it was the IPAS VIEW routine which made me realise how useful it would
be.
Just as a matter of interest, how can you display hidden items other than by
name. I mean once they are hidden you cannot select them from the viewport, so
why give any other option ?

If you've got a portion of an object or elements faces hidden, and want to
unhide the whole thing… that's what Unhide/Object and Element are for.
