Hide a drawing in the sheet

amirhossein.jafarii — Wed, 24 Jun 2020 19:17:35 GMT

I would like to hide these drawings in the sheet but I can't find the option.

Hide in view, will hide the title of drawings.

I know delete them is also an option but I would like to learn if it is possible to hide a drawing.

Thank you all,

So you want to keep the View Title but hide the View? Do you know how to create a Masking Region on a Sheet?

FWIW:

1. Create a Detail Line on the Sheet.

2. Group the Detail Line.

3. Go to a Model View and place instance of Group.

4. Edit Group and draw a Masking Region.

5. Finish and close out of Group Editing Mode

6. Go to Sheet and see that the Group created in Step #2 now includes the Masking Region you added in Step #4.

7. Edit Group and Edit Masking Region to Resize as needed to completely mask the View you want to hide.

8. Finish and close out of Group Editing Mode.

Move them to the outside of the TB border, must to on the right side and above the bottom line of the TB border. Then set your print to 100%, Offset from corner = No Margin.

p/s: you cannot mask any annotation including text/dims in views as well as the the view titles.

My understanding is that he doesn't want to hide the View Title. Just the View. Otherwise, what's the point? Just Remove the View from the Sheet if that's the goal.

I guess for non-apparent reasons OP wants the view to remain on the sheet and/or be referenced to it... Moving it like Toan suggests could be the way, but you could also refer to the sheet number in the view name, just delete it place it back whenever you need it... Or perhaps if you just crop the view really really small... hehe, no I don't know, I'd just delete the view also probably...

Just wondering Revit has this option

This will work as well.

Because at this stage we gotta hide the drawings, submit to the clients and re-submit again and we would like to keep the drawings in the same position in the sheet (to save time).

But thank so much!

I need the view titles to be hidden as well.

What you could do is move the view to a sort of dummy-sheet using PyRevit plugin, it will move back in the same position as before (unless it was moved otherwise ofcourse...)
