Hi,

How could I suppress/hide some of the bodies (the highlighted ones in the tree) from a 2D view?
I know that one solution would be to make/save all the bodies as individual separate parts in a new assembly).
But I am curious to know if there is another simpler solution.
I was thinking of using layers, but in the last 10 years I used different CAD systems.
Not sure if that maybe another option......

I would suggest using an assembly, and use arrangements. Makes things a little bit easier, than layers, and reference sets. But this is my experience, especially when you use the part in downstream applications.
 

Using layers is also a good segregation method
