Hello all!

Something has started to annoy me and i'm sure there must be a way around it.

I am drafting and i have a large assembly, i am using the 'hide components in view' command, i select a few components and then it highlights the full assembly, you have to wait for it to 'un-highlight' and then you can carry on, is there a way to get around this?

Thanks

James

RE: highlighted parts

Try picking the components in the ANT instead of picking them from the drawing view and see if that speeds things up for you.

Thanks jerry1423

Yeah thats faster, just easier to pick them from the drawing view when you have hundreds of parts, maybe its not something that can be done though

RE: highlighted parts

In Preferences -> selection, there is an option: "highlight selection on rollover". Try turning this off.
