This function clears any settings added by setElementVisibleTo and restores an element to its default visibility. This does not work with all entities - vehicles, players and objects are exempt. This is because these objects are required for accurate sync (they're physical objects). This function is particularily useful for changing the visibility of markers, radar blips and radar areas.

Required Arguments

  • element: The element in which you wish to restore to its default visibility
