Nodel and datum visibility

Nodel and datum visibility

I would love to have it so when you select a part in an assembly or even a feature in a part that you can see it's wireframe image through the entire model. Because now when you pick a part in an assembly, its edges turn blue but it would be great if the blue would highlight as a wireframe image of the part and that you could see it through other parts of the model. Because now if I pick a part in the model browser, I have to rotate the assembly and hope I see part of the blue outline fo find out where it is. And if it is a part inside a closed assembly, I have no way of finding it through the browser. I can do 'find in window' but that just zooms in on the general area of where it is, it doesn't actually show me the part (in a wireframe image would be nice perhaps...^^^)

agreed!...remineds me of my post about needing to be able to see sketches through objects, so that they can be worked on from the outside without having to section the model.
