Hiding a layer temporarily removes it from being displayed on your canvas, and also removes the layer's animation from your timeline.

This is useful for reducing the amount of information in the UI when editing other layers, or to not show a layer at all if not needed anymore.

To hide a layer, go to the layer panel and toggle the 'eye' icon.
