# Soloing Objects

Use the Solo button to hide all other objects except the selected object. Using Solo is useful for identifying an object in a scene with many objects, without having to hide all of the other objects.

To solo an object:

1. In the schematic, select the object that you want to solo.
2. From the Selection Mode box, choose Selected.
3. Enable Solo.

   All other objects in the scene are hidden, regardless of whether they are set to Hide or not. When Solo is disabled, the Hide settings are restored.

   TipYou can leave Solo enabled and select different objects in the schematic to view each object separately.

To solo a branch:

1. In the schematic, select the parent of the branch that you want to solo.
2. From the Selection Mode box, choose Branch.
3. Enable Solo.

   All other objects in the scene are hidden, regardless of whether they are set to Hide or not. When Solo is disabled, the Hide settings are restored.
