Re: How to hide point/line in drawing
I hoped that was not the only answer something with less moves ? just like you can hide edges with pop up meny, or something in settings that you can set up so you don't have to make layers or put things in layers and hide ?

Re: How to hide point/line in drawing
Fair enough. Unfortunately, not for sketched lines. For model lines in the drawing there are these options when you RC on lines in the drawing.

I have a Layer in my drawing template that stays turned off. When I have sketch entities that I want to hide I just click on them to highlight them, click the drop-down on the Layers toolbar, and click on the Hidden layer to move them. That's one more click than right-click and choosing "Hide". I don't think that's too difficult.

Re: How to hide point/line in drawing
No of course not. I think SW just spoiled me with so many good shortcuts, so now when I see something like this, I think there must be a faster way. thanks for your answer. But just for my curiosity, is there a reason there is no funcion to just hide line or point you drew ?

Re: How to hide point/line in drawing
Milos,
You can always post an idea that speaks to this. I agree that if you can do this with a simple RC and hide a line with the geometry, why not sketched lines.

Re: How to hide point/line in drawing
Milos,
I suspect that the reason SolidWorks doesn't have such tools for sketched enitities is because it was not meant to be a 2D drawing tool. The focus is on the solid model and getting a reasonably good drawing, not on making drawings from scratch.

Re: How to hide point/line in drawing
Hi Jerry,
I said as an example that I started from skratch so people don't get confused abuot normal model hiding lines. I know it is meant to make drwaings out of models. But many times I needed to draw a line or a point on that drawing. And why not be able to hide it if you need it ? But as said by Scott, I will file enhancement request and if people vote it... good, if not I will make a work around as always.
Thanks for your answer

Re: How to hide point/line in drawing
Just use "Hide all" option or "Hide sketches" option in view bar.

Re: How to hide point/line in drawing
Hi Denny,
Thanks for your answer. But hide all or hide sketches options don't hide the lines or points you draw, it hides sketches from the model. And also i don't want to hide all lines or points I drew in the drawing.
