Make sketches visibility of imported component NOT read-only

Make sketches visibility of imported component NOT read-only

Parametric modeling is not a cool trick to have at hand, it's a way of life !

 

Component visibility is modifiable (not read-only) in imported file but editing the source is needed for root sketches, which makes sharing sketches quite impractical

 

Quoting a similar request about construction features : "The only way to change their visibility is to open the component, change the desired visibility, save, go back to the working level, update component to latest.  That's a huge amount of effort and time, which results in new versions of the sub-component each time visibility is saved"

I would like to extend this functionality to not just sketches, but all objects in a linked / imported component.  Sometimes you have alternate representations of a component managed using different bodies.  At the assembly level, you need the ability to hide one body (representation) and show another.  You then want to save these visibility settings with the assembly.
