Is there a way to disable "Show Display State Names" as default when opening a file?
I would like to enable "Show Component Descriptions" instead and have to manually change this on every part/assembly after opening for this is more useful in identifying our parts.
Thank you!
Right-click on the file name and go to "Tree Display" on the drop-down. That will take you to a list where you can choose what information to display. This is file specific, so if you want it to apply to future projects you will need to save it in your templates.
Thanks Glenn, but I was hoping there was a way to change the defaults so when I open an old, archived parts/assemblies, I would not have to change it manually.
I already have a template saved so any new models will already be the way I want.
I think having the "Show Display State Names" ON is bothersome, in my opinion. I would rather have a choice to my default settings.
Not sure but a macro might be able to set that. I mean you can batch run the macro OR run per active file/SW session to set that option and save the file.
I'm still saying that this is just an idea and I'm not sure if there are API codes to do that.
Great idea Deepak, thanks!.
I recorded, saved and ran the macro, but it does not work on a new file after opening.
I will not give up though for the macro is simple and should work.
Share your macro here and someone can look at it to fix it.
