    Missing 'design view representation' from 2013

    My company have recently upgraded from Inventor 2010 to Inventor 2013, on the whole I like it a lot better but there is one feature I can't find or Autodesk have removed. I have attached an image of what I mean if I haven't explained it very well but on the browser bar there used to be a drop down 'design view representation' that you could change back to 'master' quickly. I found this very useful as I often use the 'visible' tool to hide parts then want to unhide them all at once. Is there another way of doing what I want or does this tool exist hidden away somewhere else?

     

    thanks for any help!

    Under the assembly in the browser there is a Representations folder if you right click on that folder you can choose Representation..., which will pop up a box allowing you to choose View, Postional, and LOD representations.  Or, you can expand the Representations folder and the View folder under that, where you will find all your View Reps and can switch to any of them by double clicking.

    Ok, thanks for that. I did know about that already it's just a longer winded way of doing it and I was looking for a quick button like on 2010. Basically all I want is something to unhide all parts that have been hidden or made 'not visible'.

     

    thanks anyway

    When working in an assembly, I typically leave the View Reps folder expanded, then I can double click quickly to change from one to another.
