The way I have found is to right click the view frame, expand view lebel window, then overload properties. Brings up another window, select items from view to not show, item updates in window list, select item and hit edit button to bring up last window (Editor) and modify the pick box's as needed. Shown and Use when projecting are the two I use most.

Here is how I accomplished this change....first note that all drawing views were locked.
1. In the CATDrawing file I unlocked the views in the drawing that I want to blank the components.
2. Open the CATPart file and HIDE the components that I want invisible in the drawing views.
3. Go back to the drawing and update the unlocked views. This made the desired components invisible.
4. Lock the changed views.
5. Go back to the CATPart file and UNHIDE the components.
6. Save the drawing file.
It was simple and worked well.

Just so long as you never have to update the drawing, or provide it as data to an OEM. (it won't pass the configuration conrol criteria)
For in-house hack and slash, it's *a* way of doing things.
