Is possible to hide temporarily the selected element, similarly to deleting it or moving it to another level and turning such level off, but without actually doing any of that. I just want to perform operations on elements one by one (for example, consecutively name groups or oprhan cells), then hide them as I go so I don't operate on them twice. Then at the end just unhide/show them (maybe a dialog listing all hidden elements and removing them from that list).
I couldn't find such feature, not idea if is available.

You could write a macro to perform that task. Then you wouldn't have to hide elements in your manual process.

That's more trouble that it's worth, because every cell will be modified in a different way, so it will take even more time with a macro than doing it directly. If the same transformation were to be applied to all of them I would just select them all and modify at once.
Maybe a possibility would be to make those elements Construction elements. You can turn them on/off in View Attributes & you add/remove them from selection sets in Power Selector. Then switch them back to Primary elements when done.
I know it is not the more simple solution you are looking for but, a Jon states, a macro is the only other way I can think of to accomplish what you want

Thanks, I understand that there's no such an option.
Have you tried Display sets?
