Hide Objects

objects are not drawn in the Scene View.
Hide Selected Objects
You can hide the objects in the current selection so that they are not drawn in the Scene View. This is useful
when you want to remove specific parts of the model. For example, when you walk down the corridor of building,
you may want to hide a wall that occlude your view of the next room.
