Hiding and displaying graphic objects on the Map

The object icon on the Map can be visible or hidden. An object can be hidden in one of the following ways:

1. At the system configuration stage. Visible objects are always displayed on the Map, whereas hidden objects are displayed only in the hidden objects display mode. The hidden objects display mode is enabled using the Show hidden item in the Map function menu that you can access by right-clicking any place on the Map, which is free from object icons.
   
   The status of the mode is indicated by a check mark next to the Show hidden item. The check mark is set when the mode is enabled. There is no check mark when the hidden objects display mode is disabled.
   

   Note

   The hidden objects display mode applies across all Map layers.

2. With the filter on the map layer. This filter applies only to the current layer and hides all objects of the specified type or the names of objects. Hiding and displaying objects is performed using the Hide (Filter) command in the Map function menu that you can access by right-clicking any place on the Map, which is free from object icons.
   
   Hidden objects are marked with a check mark. The hiding on the system configuration stage takes precedence over the hiding on the map layer. It means, an object hidden on the configuration stage is not displayed, even if the Hide (Filter) menu item isn't checked.
   The Name menu item is used to hide the names of all objects on the current map layer. If an object is hidden by any of the above methods, then its name is not displayed, even if the Name menu item isn't checked. If there is a check mark next to the Name menu item, then only graphic symbols (icons, lines, and so on) without captions are displayed on the layer.
   

   Note

   If names of objects are hidden and an alarm event occurs, then the name of the object with an alarm event will be displayed during an alarm. 

   Similarly, a hidden camera is displayed during an alarm.
