A SubChart can be hidden by hiding all of the objects it contains.
Objects can be hidden by using the '''Format SymbolInstruments''' window:
# Open the '''Format SymbolInstruments''' window.<br><span>{{FormatSymbol}}</span>
# Select the '''Settings''' tab.
# In the '''Display''' section, in the '''SubChart''' scrolling list box, select '''Hide'''.
* Click the '''Hide Object''' icon on the '''Control''' toolbar; or:
* Select '''Format''' in the main menu and click '''Hide Object'''.
 
<br><div style="background-color: #E3FBE5;">'''Note''': Starting with MultiCharts 8.8 beta 1 any hidden data series does not affect bar spacing of any other data series. In any previous version even though a data series is hidden it still affects bar spacing in order to synchronize invisible bars with visible bars.</div>
<br>To hide a SubChart you may have to repeat the procedure for any additional objects that the SubChart may contain.
To redisplay a data series:
# Open the '''Format SymbolInstruments''' window.<br><span>{{FormatSymbol}}</span># Select the object to be redisplayed and click the '''Format''' button to display the '''Format SymbolInstruments''' window.
# Select the '''Settings''' tab.
# In the '''Display''' section, in the '''SubChart''' scrolling list box, select '''Show On Top''', '''Show On Bottom''', or '''SubChart&nbsp;#n''', to redisplay the data series in a new SubChart at the top, a new SubChart at the bottom, or in an existing SubChart, respectively, in the Chart Window.
