How do I hide elements without connections?

Elements without any connections are called "orphans" and might sometimes distract from your main map.
To hide orphans in your map, use the ignore-orphans property in the @settings block to automatically filter out any elements that have no connections. Possible values for this property are true or false.
@settings {
    ignore-orphans: true;
}
Dynamic hiding of orphans
You might not always want to hide the orphans in your map. To add a handy control to your map that toggles orphans on and off whenever needed, add this code to your advanced editor:
@controls {
 top {
 filter {
  target: :orphan;
  as: label;
​
  option {
    selector: *;
    default: true;
    label: "Hide elements without connections";
   }
  }
 }
}
To adjust the location or aesthetic of your control, visit the Controls guide.
