Hi Chipp - also another way to do what you were looking for just occurred to me.

You can select named objects by typing in their names in the X/Y/Z input control, and you can wildcards in the name like for example typing in *wheel would select anything anything with a name that ends with "wheel", and if you just put in plain * there that will match all named objects.

So another way is to type the tab key (which puts focus in the X/Y/Z input control), then type * and push Enter, now all named objects are selected and you can hide them using Edit > Hide.
