Create complex selections
Find exactly
what you need.
Hide and Seek makes building advanced selections fast and intuitive. You can create selections based on object type, object name, or hierarchy position, making it easy to isolate exactly what you need in even the most complex scenes.
For example, you can instantly select all splines, only helix splines, or only editable splines, all with simple text-based searches.

Full tag search support
Tags included.
Nothing missed.
Hide and Seek also works with tags. By including the word “Tag” in your search, you can locate and select specific tags across your entire scene.
This makes it easy to find missing texture tags, compositing tags, render tags, or any other tag type, and quickly modify or delete them as needed.

Once a selection is created, Hide and Seek lets you cycle through objects one at a time using built-in navigation controls. You can adjust parameters globally in the Attribute Manager or fine-tune individual objects without losing your selection.
