Opposite of bringing together

3D Design Volume Model
1

Hello

There are days when I have asked questions and others... none:)

I wanted to know how to do the opposite of the "gather" command.

I use the shift+c key on my pc to gather all the open functions in the featuremanager creation tree. This has the same consequence as right-clicking on the assembly and selecting "gather".

D or my question:

Is it possible to do the opposite, develop all the functions or all the parts with a single command instead of clicking one by one on each "+" of each part...

Thank you.

Hello

Does that answer your question:

Right-click the FeatureManager Design Tree and click View Tree > Show Flat Tree View.

 

It is not possible to my knowledge to develop all the functions of the tree, but I advise you to use the filter to find a particular function, or by searching for E (for sketch), you can develop all the sketches (to be tested: or * or?):

See also the macro available here:

Editing: a priori since SolidWorks 2014 Update + * develops everything!

Thank you for your answer but no, the tree display doesn't work as I want.

And I only have this option when I'm in a room and not in an assembly.

Hello

 

I use an alternative:

I split my creation tree with one that is collected and one that is developed see PC.

I also use this solution to have my cretion tree and my configs at the same time

For any developer: "*" key.

/!\ it develops EVERYTHING!

"-" key to gather

However, they might consider creating an "exploded" button next to the "gather" button:p

@stefbeno:

Ah ah thank you for this tip I didn't know :)

None of these commands work whether it's Shift+* or * alone or  - ... No change.

 

I went to see in the customizable options of the keyboard and there is indeed Developlopper/gather under the same command... to which I put the "C".

Which has the effect that when I click Shift+C, it gathers... normal but if I do the same thing again, it doesn't develop....

For me, the "*" and the "-" work very well if you point to the line at the top of the creation tree
