Global selection to no show in V5 R17??
(OP)
I have a catproduct with many axes showing. How do I globally select these to no show them? I have tried using the search tool but I could not get it to work.





RE: Global selection to no show in V5 R17??
But, here's how you do it the Edit + Search way:
1. Edit + Search
a. change the workbench to PartDesign
b. select the type of element (Axis System)
c. click the binocular icon to find all the elements
d. after it finds and lists them, clich the SELECT button on the bottom
2. Click the HIDE/SHOW icon
3. if all the elements are now shown, click the SELECT button again and click the HIDE/SHOW icon again.
there's a few shortcuts, but those are the steps

If you and everyone else always does before the save a part, the assemblies will never be cluttered up with all the axis, planes, sketches, etc.

You are right Jackk, for every designer should be a rule to do what you said...in my company I've created a macro to do exactly this in CATParts...and checkers are really good....
But this can be done also with a simple search query stored in favorites and used in the power input command....
And by the way Jackk, one of my teachers told once that a good engineer should know what to search and where to search...
