select part instead of drawing view

I want to hide a bunch of components in a drawing view.  Selecting and hiding from feature manager is tedious (and part is not always highlighted in view to ensure I hide correct one).  I would like to select parts from the view but clicking anywhere on the view selects the view and opens the view property menu/toolbar.  Is there a way to select the part instead of the view?  Or any other ideas on efficiently hiding components in a view.

Thanks,

Marty
