How to no show Sketch entities?

I'm just starting out with onshape. I tried freecad and that was too buggy for me, I like shaper3D and got pretty good at it but it's kind of expensive so here I am with onshape. This looks like a pretty good CAD program.
I want to extrude a face but interior lines which I would like to no show are making that difficult.0

Appreciate getting back with me! you're correct I do need to invest more time. I think what I'm going to do is create my models in shaper 3D( still have a month) and spend more time with Online help until I'm better up to speed
I found the self-paced courses.
I have already gone through Beginner Tutorial 1/5 - Onshape 3D CAD - Creating Sketches, these were well done
Now use this sketch to do an Extrude, Revolve, Sweep and a loft and your ready to go.
And remember, Part,s that have a strong relation to each other ( box and a Lid) are allways in the same Part studio
