To Hide Balloons
When you hide a balloon, you blank it from the display. The balloon still exists in the background. You can redisplay the balloon using the Unhide command on the shortcut menu or from the Drawing Tree.
1. Open a drawing.
2. Select one or more balloons you want to hide.
3. Right-click the graphics window and click Hide on the shortcut menu. The selected balloons display in gray, indicating that they have been erased from the display.

You can undo the hide operation immediately only if you have not yet clicked another place in the graphics window. With the gray version of the balloon on the screen, right-click and click Unhide on the shortcut menu. The balloon is highlighted in magenta. If you click elsewhere in the graphics window, the balloon then displays in the system color. The Unhide command is not available if you have repainted or regenerated the display, or if you have clicked another place in the graphics window after erasing the balloon.
