How to design a hand editor to show play, but not all 4 hands

Hi. I am having trouble designing a hand editor so that it shows the play of all 4 hands to a point, but keeps two of the hands hidden. I know it is possible to do, though, since I have seen diagrams like that. What's the secret?

Only enter cards for two of the four hands... during play, enter the cards played by the unseen hands just as if they were shown in the diagram. Hope that makes sense...

Is that something I can do in the viewer, or do I have to do manual editing of the "code" afterwards?

Edit: Nevermind, I think I've figured it out. Worst case scenerio I can create two diagrams, one with the play and one with only the two hands showing, and paste in what I want; alternatively, I can figure out the coding.

Hi, can someone explain to me how to do this? As CSG said, is it possible to do in the editor or should I just become au fait with the code?

 

Also 'boldbida' raises a good question...

 

Also, a side-issue. By what method can I quickly get a handviewer URL link to a hand posted in the forums?

 

EDIT: Okay, I have worked it out by just creating the whole hand and then cutting out the two hands that I don't want to be visible and replacing them with "shdc". So it seems it is not possible to do this in the actual editor. This is a shame and I don't understand why. It would be such a quick and easy feature to implement.
