Remove trails from presentation

Is there a way to remove the trails from a presentation one they have been added using the tweak components command ? These are shown on the animation but I can't seem to remove them without completely redoing the animation.

I think if you select one and right click you can either remove it or turn it off.  Inventor isn't open at the moment, so I can't tell you exactly what the command is.... but I know I've done it.

Go to Assembly View in the ipn

Select any parts that have a trail (I used Shift select first and last to select all in between) note that the base component was not tweaked.

CosmoK, Set your selection filter to "Select Trail Priority", and then select the trails you want to delete, right click, and hit delete.

There is also an option to not add them when you create the tweak.  Then, it seems there is an option to not show them when you place the drawing view.

 

Thanks for the help.  I got stuck then googled it.  This thread must pertain to an older Inventor version which only added to my confusion.  Thanks!
