Use the Isolate Select feature (Show
> Isolate Select > View Selected) to show only
certain objects or components in a view panel.
Unlike the
Display
> Hide commands,
the Isolate Select feature can also isolate components (polygon
faces, NURBS CVs, or subdivision surface mesh faces), and only affects
the display, not rendering.
Each panel maintains its own Isolate Select settings.
