Show All Hide All  

The default is to show the 1st X3D profile where this node appears (first in the list of CADInterchange, Core, Full, Immersive, Interactive, Interchange, MedicalInterchange, MPEG-4 interactive), X3dom, X3D-Archive (x3dA), and X3D-Display (x3dD) profiles.

Nodes are broadly categorized. The categories are shown in the Color Legend table. Clicking on the category will toggle the display of the specified category. The Show All and Hide All cells do the obvious. You can click on Hide All, then the desired category to just show nodes in that category.
