Add VG toggle to show voids (that are cutting objects)

Add VG toggle to show voids (that are cutting objects)

Add a Visibility Graphics toggle to show the voids in a model as visible volumes so you can find-, select- and edit them more easily.

 

Guessing where you placed a void and trying to get it slected by clicking the edge of the cut is tedious, especially if you have to edit multiple voids.

I agree, but only if it's added to View Control Bar (not Visibility Graphics Overrides, because in that case, should be added as a subcategory for each category).

@samuelsanf If they implement this at all, hopefully this afternoon, it will likely be as printable as room markings or the curly opening inside out markers the name of which elude me for the moment.

I agree, should be the option in print setup / export CAD to "Show/Hide Voids", like the ones to Hide ref/work planes, Hide unreferenced view tags, Hide scope boxes and Hide crop boundaries.

This, for the love of God, add it! When you open someone else's project* you have no way of knowing how many voids are placed, where they're placed, why they're placed, what are they cutting. They can be on any category, named who knows what. Impossible to find but can have a major impact on the model.

 

*or even your own old one
