Unhide Components

Kevin_GallichanKevin_Gallichan Member Posts: 5
I have some parts and assemblies within a larger assembly.
I want to unhide one of the assemblies. When I click the eye next to the assembly, nothing is shown. 
So to unhide the assembly,  I have to expand the assembly in the tree and also every sub-assembly and click each individual component to show it.
If the assembly is hidden, I can select show all but that shows everything so it's not what I want.

I'm looking for the "show all assembly" command that filters down and shows everything just within the assembly selected.

Is there such a command ?
Is there a better way to show the parts I need to seee ?

Thanks

    Hello Kevin - there is only "show all instances" or expand everything and shift-select then show.

    Really - no way to select an asembly and show all of that assembly.
    This is pretty basic functionality.
    How do we add improvement suggestions to the list ?
