Hiding Objects

You can hide an object in an image so that it cannot be seen while working in the Capture Editor. Later, you can always bring the object back into view.

Example  

You have added objects to an image but you need to focus on editing the image background. You can hide the objects in order to work freely on your background, and later, when the background image is complete, you can show the objects again.

How to Hide Objects

  1. Open an image to which you have added objects.
  2. Select View > Object Layers.

    The Object Layers window pane opens, with each object represented by a different row. The object on the top layer is in the top row; the object on the bottom layer is on the bottom row.

  3. (Optional) You can click on a row and the related object will be selected in the Capture Editor. This is a good way to make sure you are selecting the correct object (e.g., if you have five rectangles in the image and you are not sure which row goes with which object).
  4. In the appropriate object row, click Hide so that it contains a check mark. If you later want to show the object, remove the check mark.
  5. Click to save your work.

Note Hiding objects does not hide them from your final image, only from your working version. If you save an image with hidden objects, the objects will display when viewing the image outside of Capture.
