Anyway to automate the suppressing of hidden parts in an assembly drawing?

I recently completed creating an assembly via inserting modeled parts and then using joints to combine them.
I am now in the midst of creating assembly drawings to send to customers so when they need to order replacement parts they know what to ask for. I am likely not using the ideal workflow but I think I'll get to that later. For now I need to get manuals out to customers!
I found an older post that would somewhat deal with my question:
And that does work, but in this assembly (without counting I'm guessing about 150 pieces), for just the first page I am going to need to either suppress all the parts and then unsuppress just the ones I need (a total of 26 pieces used between 17 different parts) or suppress the long list of parts that are hidden. The first option looking much better in this case.
I was hoping there would be some quick way to easily suppress all hidden items in the drawing, but if it is there, I haven't found it yet!
