“Select & Hide” collects information about the elements present in view and represents them in the table as the tree of information according to configuration. A newly modeled element is automatically added to the table if it meets the configuration criteria.

If a view is bound by a Crop View or Section Box, Select & Hide will analyze only the elements present in the view's initial boundaries. To reset the filter for the new boundaries, turn on a different configuration and then switch back to the original one.
