# Hidden IFX

You can set IFX to be hidden from your view when in mixed reality mode, but visible to other users in virtual reality mode. This enables you to add representations of objects in your physical environment to appear alongside your basic digital twin. You will see the real-world objects and users in VR mode will see the IFX that represent them. For example, you could place a chair IFX in the same position as a real world chair, allowing remote users to sit down on your chair.
