i want to identify blank part in an assembly through macro.

what i am doing now is checking hidden state of partbody, body and geometrical set.
as well as searching geometry in the body, partbody and geometrical set ( if they are in unhide mode).


Is there is any other way to check this...

hey itsmyjob, as per the requirement blank part means part without geometry or if geometry present then it must be in hidden mode.
for eg, check below two file

don't forget deactivated geometry:

if all features are deactivated then volume = 0
