Pipe I do NOT want to display

Hey folks,

Doing some cross sections and I've got a cross pipe that I don't want to display in one particular section. As the pipe is at quite the skewed angle, it comes in looking terrible! Besides, it displays on other sections properly. Any ideas on how to NOT have it display in this one section? I've attached a picture to show how badly it's coming in.

 

Thanks.

Create a layer for that one Pipe Network Section. Put this one on that layer and freeze that layer. Other Pipe Network Sections will remain on the original layer. This will not affect pipes in plan view.

Close, but not quite enough. All the pipes froze, and I only needed the one pipe out of the way. However, you gave me an idea.

I created a new pipe style that drew its elements on a different layer, and made that one pipe that style. Then I went into paperspace and went to the tab of the section I needed to adjust. Clicking on the viewport, I froze that layer in just that viewport, and the pipe disappeared - yahhhh! Meanwhile, the pipe continues to display in the other sections where it's needed.

A bit convoluted, but it works. Thanks for your effort.
