Is there an easy way of exporting only visible parts from an assembly? I received an assembly with a lot of subassemblies with a lot of subassemblies with some hidden parts. I will take me a lot of time to find every hidden part in every sub-sub-subassembly and exclude them individually in the STEP export dialog.

    Assuming you're using Creo Parametric, you can add the config option intf_out_blanked_entities no.  With this set to 'no' only the items that are visible on the screen will be exported.

      Thanks, worked like a charm.

      @PTC, why don't you add a small checker box in the export dialog with this option? It is not so intuitive to have this option hidden (in the very unintuitive Configuration Editor).
