Visibility control using filter

The use of filters in Revit is endless. You can filter families, control object selection, apply filters across linked Revit files and so on, whatever you can think. In this example, I will show you a case where you use a filter to hide view annotations. If your views are well organized in your Project Browser, you can create a filter to hide or isolate its visibility.

For example you get these view annotations in one of your detail views.

You cannot use the hide elements option because it is not available when you right click the view annotation.

Creating a filter to select this view category will do the job.

Go to Visibility Graphics, click the Filters tab and click Add and select the filter just created. The View Filter can be toggled to isolate the object visibility or turn it off as needed.

Try creating your own filters from now on to control the view visibility in your project.
