proe import

svenolov_nystrom

I have an asm proe import with hundreds of parts.   its not possible to suppress parts or assembles  and I want to have just a few parts visible at a time  when I take show all I have a mess on the screen
is it possible to group parts so they dont show up  with show all or something similar to layers in proe ?

Not sure if this is what you mean but sometimes I spend a heap of time getting an assembly into a display state with certain bits hidden and other shown then move on from here but then later want to return to this state. At the moment there is no way to retain this display state/setup.

I think it would be cool as an improvement request if the named views actually remembered the display state/display settings, not sure if this is possible but kind of makes sense, as I thought it may have already worked that way.

Svenolov - i want to make sure i help you to the best of my ability, but i am not sure that i am correctly understanding your question.
Yes you can absolutely hide/show parts and sub-assemblies in Onshape documents.
