Used to hide visibility of selected nodes.

  • Menu (Graph view node) - right-click > Visible

Selecting the node in the view turns it invisible and the node geometry of the node in the Graph turns gray.

Sets the geometry node's Visibility property to "Hidden". Meaning, this node (particularly its geometry, if any) will always be hidden, independent from any downstream node's AutoHideInputs property setting.

Tip: To change the Hidden property value back to Visible, you must select (Visible) or Rt-click > Automatic Visibility | Visible from the Graph view node.
