Hiding construction planes from the API

[fergc]

I wrote a Python script that creates a sequence of planes that after they served their purpose I would like to hide from the script. The problem I have is that the plane's "isVisible" property is "read only", is there another way to achieve this?

Thanks,

Fernando

Use the isLightBulbOn property. It's a weird name, but in the early versions of Fusion, the icon to control the visibility was a lightbulb. Setting this will change the visibility setting of the plane, but if the component it is in, or the Construction folder it is in has it's visibility turned off the plane still won't be visible. The isVisible property returns what the current state is.

Thanks. It works!
