Electrical – Altium – Hiding connections for a particular component in the PCB designer

altiumpcb

my question is simple: can I in Altium PCB Designer hide the connections for only a particular component?

enter image description here

I tried whit "View->Connections->Hide Component Nets" but this hides all the connections for every component on the board. I want hide only the connections from the header component to the others and not the connection from the IC, for example, and the other component on the top of the board.

Is it possible?

To explain better, this is my actual situation:

enter image description here

If I make "View->Connections->Hide Component Nets" or "N->H->O" all connection disapear (even for the IC on the top):

But I want this final situation (I photoshopped the image!):

Ok, I searched on the web a solution to the problem and I found that in Altium there isn't a feature wich hide the connections for only one component. However I found (in the Altium forum) two escamotage to obtain it:

  1. The easiest way to hide net connections to a single footprint would be to temporarily remove those pins from the net. Just be sure to "update from schematic" at some later point in the project.

    It seems the faster way to hide temporally the connection for the component. enter image description here

  2. You can get the result using the From-To feature, but it would take some time to setup. Try this page for more information.

These solutions seem to be the better ways but any other suggestion are welcome.
