Export only visible parts from an assembly?

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.

      Looks like it's currently a hidden option.  Just type (or copy) it in and then set the value to 'yes'.
