Summary
When you use VPOINT, DVIEW, or VIEW to create a 3D view of your 2D
drawing, a wireframe is displayed in the current viewport. All lines are present,
including those hidden by other objects. HIDE eliminates the hidden lines
from the screen.
In a 3D drawing, HIDE starts VSCURRENT and sets the visual style to 3D
Hidden in the current viewport. You can view all the settings for 3D Hidden
in the
Visual Styles Manager on page 2051.
HIDE considers the following to be opaque surfaces that hide objects: circles,
solids, traces, text, regions, wide polyline segments, 3D faces, polygon meshes,
and the extruded edges of objects with nonzero thickness.
