Another "Hide floor level discovery"

Post by Red »

I just made another discovery of the interface, I've never seen it posted so here goes.

Remember how you can right click on the rigth hand side level bar to hide flor levels?

Well, I just discovered that instead of clicking each level one by one, simply click the first level you want to hide, and drag the cursor where you want to stop and finally release the right mouse button.

Note that it "inverts" the selection, so say you select 2 levels and make them invisible,and then select a strip of 8 containing the 2, these 2 levels will become visible (which under some circumstances can be annoying - like when trying to remove a bunch of floor's you've hidden... would of been good to be able to just remove them all in a quick way).

Hey thanks, Red!

This is a very timely post since I'm currently working on a building/complex that is four levels deep (as in it has a ground floor and three sub-floors). It was very irritating having to click on about 26 individual levels. :lol:

Oops, I thought everyone knew that one. Heh, heh. I use it all of the time to make my three story building disappear.

I with JJ86 on this one - I rarely do "New Occulsion Data" more than once, thanks to that ability. It saves SO much time :D

Our emotions always find us
Regardless of where we hide.
