How to Hide and Unhide Items

Introduction

This article describes how to go from a Displayr document that displays all pages, variables, outputs, and objects when viewed and exported:

To a state where selected items are hidden in View/Explore mode or exports:

Requirements

A Displayr document and data set.

Method 1 - via the Anything menu

To hide any page, variable, output, or object in your document or page, select the page, variable, or item(s), and go to Anything > Hide/Unhide > Hide.

To unhide any page, variable, output, or object in your document or page, select the hidden page, variable, or item(s), and go to Anything > Hide/Unhide > Unhide.

Method 2 - using right-click on the page, variable, output, or object

To hide any page, variable, output, or object in your document or page, right-click the page, variable, or item(s), and select Hide.

To unhide any page, variable, output, or object in your document or page, right-click the hidden page, variable, or item(s), and select Unhide.

Hidden pages, objects, and outputs will have Hidden from exported views ticked in Properties > LAYOUT.

Hidden variables and variable sets will have Hidden except in the data tree ticked in Properties > GENERAL.

The hide/unhide function can also hide rows and columns from standard outputs. I've illustrated this in the "Living Arrangments" output table above, hiding the NET and Female columns.
