Hiding objects in drafting

Hiding objects in drafting

Hiding objects in drafting

(OP)
I'm creating a drawing package, and on some sheets I want to see certain objects while on others I don't want to see them.  Is there a way to tell the drafting application what to show on what sheet?  For instance, I want 'Revolve (5)' on sheet 1, but not on sheet 4.  

Thanks for any help

RE: Hiding objects in drafting

Revolve(5) sounds like a Feature, but is it a standalone object or part of some larger model?  Can you provide at least a picture of what the item looks like which you're attempting to make a drawing of?

use 'view dependent edit' to erase what you dont wanna see and add needed lines in 'expand'

hi

do you know the Show/Hide function from the Explode View.
it works fine in Drafting.

But only for components.
