Resetting component display style

Resetting component display style

I'm looking for an option to reset component display style. One of our users set the component display style for individual part or subassembly, rather than for complete assembly. Now, I would like to change the component display style for complete assembly, however previously set display style for parts and subassemblies does not get reset.


Is there an option to either reset style for all the components on a view or to show components for which the style was set individually?


Thanks in advance.

Can this be done? It seems like the option to remove a display style should be in the place you set a display style.

The way I do it now in Creo 11, is to add the "Transparency" icon to the context windows in the Model tree and the Graphics window, and I created a mapkey (sd) that will go into the View manager and change back to the Default rep.

mapkey sd @MAPKEY_NAMESet Style to Default; @MAPKEY_LABELSet Style to Default;\
mapkey(continued) ~ Command `ProCmdViewVisTool` ;\
mapkey(continued) ~ Select `visual_dlg0` `RadioSelApplMgr` 1 `display style`;\
mapkey(continued) ~ Activate `visual_dlg0` `Table` 2 `default` `name_column`;\
mapkey(continued) ~ Activate `visual_dlg0` `CloseBtn`;

 

Then create an icon for this mapkey and add it to the same two context menu windows.

 

This way users can either click on a model in the Model tree and make transparent or back again, or by directly picking a surface and doing the same.  very nice to be able to make a part transparent to interrogate other parts through it, then change it back again.
