In [\textit{G. Khudaiberganov}, ``On a homogeneous polynomially convex hull of the union of balls'', VINITI 21, 1772--1785 (1982)], it was proved that it is sufficient to have two disks in order to guarantee that any straight line passing through the center of a circle in the Euclidean plane crosses at least one disk centered in this circle (or, in other words, in order that the center of the circle belong to the convex 1-hull of the disks [\textit{Y. B. Zelinskii} et al., ``Problem of shadow and related problems,'' Proc. Int. Geom. Cent. 9, No. 3--4, 50--58 (2016; \url{doi:10.15673/tmgc.v9i3-4.319 })]). The author present the main steps of this generalization with indication of all distinctions caused by the specific features of the hyperbolic plane. This problem can be regarded as a problem of finding conditions guaranteeing that points belong to a generalized convex hull of the family of balls.
