I have a page within a document that I would like to hide.  I likely won't include it in the final document but I don't want to delete it justo in case.

Hi Michael Thanks for reaching out on the Lucidchart Community! There is not currently a way to hide a single page within a document, but we’re very interested in your feedback and committed to continually improving our products. If you’re willing to share, we’d love to hear more details about your use case or what you’d like to see in this experience within this thread. I’ve also converted this post to an idea so that it’s visible to others within the Product Feedback section of the community - from here, they can upvote it and add details of their own.

Finally, for more information on how Lucid manages feedback via this community, take a look at this post:

 

There are two options that I would suggest as a workaround. The first is copying the diagram/information you have on that page into a separate Lucidchart document so that it isn't deleted completely but can be removed from this document. The other option is duplicating your document and saving a copy with that unwanted page deleted; that way you will have a version of your document with and without that page and you can then decide which to use for your final copy. Hope this helps!


Follow up questions:
I don't want a "Master Page" to appear in a presentation but if it is deleted all linked pages lose their "Master" content. This is not good.

How should "Master Pages" be handled when sharing a document for presentation or review?


Hi @network a thanks for continuing this thread! Just to confirm by 'presentation' are you referring to using presentation mode to transform your document into a slide deck? 

When using presentation mode it is possible to flexibly choose which pages you would like to include in your presentation and omit the master page. If you are exporting your document to share and present master pages will be omitted from this. 

I hope this helps! If this information doesn't help would you mind providing some additional information? This may help me locate the function you are looking for. Thanks! 


By "Presentation" I mean sending the LucidChart document to a team member in "view" or "comment" mode. In these cases the "Master Page" is confusing to the viewer.

I have tried "Presentation Mode"and do not see a way to hide the Master page without manually "Adding" each slide (page) to the presentation. This is not practical for many pages when only ONE page needs to be hidden.


Hi @network a thanks for following up with that information! You're right it looks like "Presentation Mode" is not suitable for your use-case. Unfortunately hiding pages is still not supported in Lucidchart so it's not possible to hide a Master page. However I can certainly see how this could be confusing if you are sharing the document with other collaborators.

Would you mind upvoting this request? The more votes we receive the more likely this is to be prioritized by our Product Development team!

Apologies for the inconvenience and thank you for your request! Please let me know if you have additional questions below. 


Yeah hide tabs. Really difficult to manage large networks of process without oversharing or creating artifacts that will become outdated as the master document gets updated


Hi ​@azmoving2016, thanks so much for adding your feedback to this thread and showing support for this idea!
