Hide or Show Objects per Paper Space Viewport

When a drawing, or paper space viewport, contains lots of detail, it can sometimes be difficult to work on a particular section when some items are obstructing the desired view. Use the Hide and Show in Selected Viewport commands to hide some items and show others in a particular viewport.

• Hide Selected Objects in Viewport: Allows the user to hide selected Items per Viewport.
• Show (Isolate) All Objects: Allows the user to reveal all the Items hidden by the Hide Selected Objects in Viewport command.
