Can't see part features when activated in an assembly

[silkyslim]

When you activate a part in an assembly, can you see the features of that part in the model tree?

Right now when I activate, everything else transparents out, and the activated part gets a little green star in the symbol, but I can't select any individual features and the part doesn't expand in the model tree.

You can do this by getting into your "tree filters" above your component tree on the left. Make sure the checkbox for "Features" is selected, click "apply." Done. Now, as far as how to make this happen by default, you'll need to set up a custom "config.pro" file, and save it to your local ProE template / configuration directory.

It can take some time to get everything completely set up custom to your preferences, but it can be done. I'm sure there's other threads regarding how to get those things set up.
