Show all hidden parts in assembly

Discussion in 'SolidWorks' started by Ilkka Loponen, May 27, 2004.

  1. Is there any way to show all the hidden parts of an assembly with one
    command ? Or has anyone made a macro for this ?

  2. Select (highlight) the item at the very top of the Feature Manager and then
    select edit>show with dependants.

  3. It would be easy to write a macro for this, but I wonder why you'd want
    this.
    Why not make a configuration with hidden parts and another with all visible
    ?

  4. Select the top level assy in the feature tree.

    Goto Edit, Show, Show with Dependents, This Configuration

    KCS Visibility Toggling macro does this with one click if the macro is
    open (otherwise takes two clicks). This macro does more. It will
    invert the display of a selection or hide others (than the selection).
    The same types of commands are available for suppression states.
