Hide the origin of many components at once

Two years ago I was asked to draw a plastic product with about a hundred identical subcomponents. I did, it went fine an injection tool was made and is in production now. Today I was asked to make the same thing but a few millimeters taller.

That's a perfect use for configurations, I thought. One configuration was made for the original 10 mm item and one for the new 14 mm. However, I accidentally had the origin visible when I saved, so when I opened the assembly it was an orange mess of origin planes.

Ok, no worries, I'll just turn off the origin and save again, but that didn't help. Alright, let's select all subcomponents and turn off origin visibility in the browser tree context menu, but that doesn't seem to be possible either. 

The problem only exists in one of the configurations, so I tried to find a way to configure the visibility of the origin but it doesn't appear that you can do that...

 

I know that they can be turned off in Display Settings, but that hides all origins. I still want to see at least two of them.

Thanks for posting.

 

The current workflow is to select the origins in the browser and press V.

There isn't a "hide origins" command on the right click menu when selecting components, so I logged an improvement request ticket (FUS-155466). Thanks for taking the time to comment!
