The current view changes to align itself with the selected object, and all other objects in the
scene are hidden.

Object after isolation

When an object is isolated, a temporary camera is created and listed in the Camera menu. The
camera shares its name with that of the isolated object.

Exit the isolated view
Do one of the following:

m

Choose Object > Isolate (or press Control-I).

m

In the Layers list or Timeline, click the Isolate button.

m

Choose a different camera from the Camera menu.

Note: You can isolate as many objects as you have views. It is a common workflow to edit
an object in an isolated view while looking at the results through a scene camera in another
view. After an object is isolated in a view, you can activate another viewport and isolate a
different object.

Depth of field overview

In the real world, cameras have a limited range of focus. Objects within that range appear sharp,
and the further outside that range an object is, the blurrier it appears. This effect is used by
camera operators to help limit which part of a scene the viewer pays attention to. Motion lets
you simulate that phenomenon, thereby increasing the sense of depth in a 3D scene.
