(OP)
Can this command be used to open a closed assembly or drawing as Solidworks does for drawings?

RE: Display closed parent

Yes.

RE: Display closed parent

(OP)
How? hehe

I have tried, but I only can display parents that are already opened in other window. Is there any option I haver to check? Thank you in advance.

RE: Display closed parent

In NX? No!
Because NX parts don’t know about existence of their MMT drawings. Really MMT drawing is another part with a one-way link only. Unless the MMT Drawings are opened in the background, you have to manually search for the drawings. So it’s not like SWx.
With SWx, even Windows explorer keeps all the links intact and cloning/file-handling processes could be performed right there.
