How is it that every conceivable means of turning off a Revision's visibility STILL results in the Revision appearing in the Revision Table? Why am I prevented by the software from removing the display of an obsoleted Revision?
Hi,
I do think there are revision clouds, in show column turn the revision clouds on and delete them from the view.
Note, uncheck issued else the revision clouds can't be deleted.
The none in the numbering just means it doen't show numbers for the issue as is exacly how it's displayed in the revision schedule.

What about the None under Show? What does that mean if not to hide the revisions on the sheet?
I know I can make the clouds visible and delete them, but they're a record so I don't want to delete them.
It hides the revision clouds and/or the revision tags to the clouds it will not hide the revisions displayed in the RevsionSchedule!
Sadly if you have rev cloud and set it to show none in the revision dialog, it will still keep the addendum revision in your titleblock. My recommendation is always place revision cloud on the sheet. That way your addendum sheet won't impact your current sheet.
Hide the Clouds with Hide in View: Elements. You need to "Show" them first.
You need to do one of these:
- if you want to keep the revision's clouds: manually hide every cloud of that revision on that sheet and in very view placed on that sheet
- if you want to keep the revision entry but not its clouds: delete that revision from the table and recreate an identical one
- if you want to get rid of the revision and clouds altogether: just delete the revision from the table
So the one option that makes sense, "uncheck this box to hide this revision on this sheet" is not available, even though they put some semblance of it in there? Why? My solution was to archive an older version to lifeboat the earlier revisions and delete them in live copy, thus wasting time and much needed disk space.
I could suggest fixing this as an idea for improvement, but a little research led to a couple threads in this and other sites about this problem dating as far back as 2008. That's how long Autodesk has been ignoring this error while "improving" their software. So instead we're stuck with using half-assed work-arounds to do simple things.
It's as though if Autodesk made a car it would kind of have breaks, but not really, and you would instead have to employ a bunch of work-arounds using lower gears, engine resistance and ultimately the emergency break to actually stop, but least they put a break pedal in there to make it look good.
Did you hide the clouds? Doesn't sound like it if the revision checkbox is checked and grayed out.
