It always annoyed me when i wanted to look at an animation i had to hide the NURBS curves to see what was beneath.
Thankfully if you use these lines of code and plug them into a hotkey you can hide and un-hide them at a touch of a button.
string $activePanel = `getPanel -wf`;
if (`modelEditor -q -nurbsCurves $activePanel` == 1) {
modelEditor -e -nurbsCurves 0 $activePanel;
} else {
modelEditor -e -nurbsCurves 1 $activePanel;
}
The great thing about this is that it's a toggle. So press it once and it turns off and press it again it turns back on. No need for 2 separate hotkeys.
You can use this on just about anything that can be displayed too, just replace the “nurbesCurves” with whatever it is you want to hide.
