Hide tool?

[ArmedCanadian]

Hey im workin on my map and ive done so much i cant tell what is what. I know u can hide entities but i dont even have any on my map yet (usually do all brushes first). Is their some kind of tool u can use to hide selected brushed, then another one to make them visible again? I don'nt know how im gonna finish this without some kinda tool like that.

Just select the brushes or entities or displacement maps or whatever that you want to hide, select hide, then put them in another visgroup (tell it to remove them from the current one) and bobs yer uncle in a santa costume they are hidden.

Then from there just select/deselect the visgroups when you want. If you keep things organised it'll make your life much simpler.
