Show toplevel SCYC's only in large assembly.
Show toplevel SCYC's only in large assembly.
(OP)
Hello,
Is there a way to show only all the SCYS's of the sub-assemblys directly placed in the top level assembly?
If i choose show "Coordinate Systems" in "Show and Hide" i get hundreds coordinate systems in my assembly. All coordinate systems of all parts many levels deep are shown. I loose the overview of all coordinate systems and the computer becomes very slow.
I only want to see the CSYS of the sub assemblys and/or parts directly placed in the assembly i'm working in.
Hopefully someone has a solution.
Thanks in advance.

Alternativly you could control them with layers, move all your sub-assembly CSYS to layer 1 and all child part CSYS to layer 2 for example then only those on layer 1 will be visible

But both ways are very time consuming. And another problem I have with both ways is that a lot of parts and (sub)assembly's are "read only", so i can't change layers or change the reference sets.
It would be a nice option if there was a possibility to choose till how deep you want to see the coordinate systems.

i.e drag-select all sub components , then tick the box in the navigator to hide them. select all the remaining CSYS and move to a specific layer.
Reverse Hide/ Show all, select all CSYS and move to a different layer.

I will try it, but i still find it a devious way to do it.
