The Visibility Override App is located in the Coordination tab of the Fuzor App Menu. The Alt + Addition Symbol hotkey opens the Visibility Override App. The Visibility Override App always appears in the center of the Fuzor window and can be dragged around. For more information see Workspace Management. Additionally, the Visibility Overrides App can be resized.

Resizes the Visibility override window

The hierarchy and phases that this menu is directly imported from your external software. The Search textbox at the top of the menu allows you to search for objects in your model. The visibility tree hierarchy is automatically expanded to highlight objects that are being searched for. Additionally, any object you select in your 3D View is also selected in the Visibility Override Hierarchy. Options appear next to each entry in the Visisbility Override. These options allow you to navigate the visibility override hiearchy and control the visibility of objects.

The Phase dropdown menu selects a Phase to view

The Show Hidden Geometry checkbox displays hidden geometry as a 2D grid

The Show 2D Lines checkbox toggles whether 2D Lines synced with Plugins are visible in Fuzor. This applies to both 2D Line that outline geometric meshes and the 2D Lines in drawings.
