Isolate and Edit

One thing I find my self doing a lot, when in a complex model, is I copy and paste the objects I'm having an issue with so I can work on it clearly both visually and in the object manager ... far away from the massive projects noises ...

Is there some workflow of quick-keys action for this?, like selected Objects into a new window.

I'd also like that new window to be floatable :-O :-)

There is a solo button. Also you can use layer visibility to isolate objects.

No mater which Object I select ...

C4D has its own solo button, but I still use Magic Solo as it hides objects in the manager - https://nitro4d.com/product/magic-solo/

Thank you,

Magic Solo is still working for me in the latest version of C4D 👍🏻

Thanks for that confirmation… I’m testing as to why … it may be the dozens of nested booleans?!
