Hello, is there a way to change an existing mass to say a wall mass or anything else.  My dilema is that I have a bunch of existing buildings that are masses, that I need to stay there.  I also have some more masses that I used to make walls by face, and I want to hide them, without deleting them in case I have to use them later.  What I want to do is to make the existing masses(other buildings) to show up but not the ones I used for my building. Can I change the existing masses to a different type so I can turn off my mass in visibility graphics to turn off the mass under the walls by face of my building? Thanks , I hope this was clear to understand?

ok 2 ways to do this if usuing 2008

select the masses you want to hide and use the temporary hide isolate tool

other option is to ste up a filter under the vvv if you are going to be turning them on and off a lot this is the best option
