show up Object "left out selection object" in Isolate Mode

[Vuxvix]

Hi!
like title. During the object selection process, sometimes (often) some objects are left out that need to be displayed in isolate mode.
Is it possible to enable reveal hidden elements mode> select the missing object and show it up!?
Thanks for any support

Sounds like you hid the Section Box. Reveal Hidden Elements will show it.   You can even resize it while in Reveal Hidden Elements mode.  Just select the Section Box and "pull" on its grips.   Once resized, deactivate Reveal Hidden Elements mode.

Hi!
Not isometric, it's isolation mode. Sorry about for wrong word.
I select some element then isolate (element or categorize) it. I see something left over that I want to display. so i select it (in reveal mode) and also want to show it.
Currently, i shoud reset mode view, then reselect it/

You could use reveal hidden elements but it would reveal everything and make it hard to select a few you need.  Open another view, select those elements, switch back to the isolation view and unhide the selected.

Hi!
it also way i select " left out Obj-LOO"- switch other view select more element. But when back view with isolate mode. Then repeat isolate command not show it( LOO) up.

No you cannot isolate those selected objects because they are still hidden in that view. Just right click in the view and unhide them.

May i not clear ur guid. Can you explain more!?
I dont hid Obj in iso view. its only left out selection before i use isolate mode.
i try find better way for reset view/ reselect/ iso.
Nếu bro là người việt thì confirm cho m dễ giải thích nhé. Thanks

I understand. Isolation is basically hidinh everything except what you select.

When you left out objects from isolation, those objects were hidden. You cannot add hidden object back to isolation, you just need to unhide them. The result is the same.

i try that way before post this topic. I use Revit 2020- dont have option unhide ( right mouse). That way work for you !?

[ToanDN]

Are the objects still selected when you right click in the view?

[Vuxvix]

yes i did.
Elevation view: iso mode - some element left out. ( reveal mode on)
3D view: for Rselect LOO
comback elavation view/ Rm/ Unhide in view/ only ( by filter) active.

It should work:

- open isolation elevation view, reveal hidden elements (the light bulb)

- open the 3d view where you can select the objects you need to unhide, and select them

- go back to the elevation view, you should see those objects are still selected, unhide them then turn off reveal hidden elements mode

I followed and it worked.  Many thanks
Also, I did some more testing and found that Annotation components( Dim, Tag, reference plane, level, grid...) won't work this way.

Annotations and details are view dependents, meaning they only show in one view.  You cannot use the same approach.  Either reveal everything, select and unhide them directly in the view, or undo the isolation and redo.
