[Gmsh] Hide and show entities

[Zenker, Dr. Matthias]

Hi,

I have a mesh file and want to visualize only selected entities in gmsh.
In the GUI, I can dio that using Tools->Visibiliy and selecting the
entities I want to see. Now I would like to do that automatically at
startup. I have written a small geo file with the following commands: 

Merge "Myfile.msh";
Hide "*";
Show { Surface {10}; }

Now the problem is that Surface 10 is not shown, whereas when I write

Merge "Myfile.msh";
Hide { Surface {10,12}; }
Show { Surface {10}; }

surface 12 is hidden, and surface 10 is shown, as well as all the other
surfaces in the file. If I want to see only surface 10 that way, I would
have to list all other surfaces in the Hide command.
Is there another way to hide all entities except one?


Thank you for a hint,

Matthias
