Missing HideInDetail() python function

@5chmidt wrote:

Greetings,
I am attempting to hide multiple objects in multiple details within several layouts of a rhino file.
I have got a test script functions correctly, however I have had to use rs.Command("_HideInDetail").
The problem is, my current method takes a long time to hide large numbers of objects across several layouts and details. I assume there must a way to gain access to the HideInDetail functionality without using the Rhino command line, but I have not been able to locate it in the docs.

Any assistance would be extremely helpful, below is my test code complete with command line functions.
Thanks

import rhinoscriptsyntax as rs
import Rhino
import scriptcontext

def HideInDetails(Objs):
    for layout in scriptcontext.doc.Views.GetPageViews():       #Get all layouts in document
        scriptcontext.doc.Views.ActiveView = layout             #Set layout to active view
        for detail in layout.GetDetailViews():                  #Get all detail in each layout
            if detail.DetailGeometry.IsProjectionLocked==True:  #Test if deatil is locked
                detail.DetailGeometry.IsProjectionLocked=False  #Lock detail so we can edit it
                detail.CommitChanges()                          #Unlock the detail 
            layout.SetActiveDetail(detail.Id)                   #Set detail to active
            
            ## Would like to accomplish this in rhino common ##
            rs.SelectObjects(Objs)                              #Select Items we dont want to see in detail
            rs.Command("_HideInDetail")                         #Hide everything you dont want to see in the detail
            rs.Command("_SelNone")                              #Clear selection

objs=rs.GetObjects("Select objects to hide in all details")
if objs: HideInDetails(objs)
