Is there an option to Show all Bodies via a single click?

Is there an option, specific to Bodies to "Show All"?  Yes, I know there is one for components so it would seem logical that there would be one hiding somewhere for Bodies?

 

Someone asked me to look over their design recently however, they had multiple bodies hidden which weren't immediately obvious forcing me to click through and hunt for them manually.

 

Is there not an option to "Show All Bodies"?

 

I spent a considerable amount of time searching before posting this question so if it has been asked and answered, my apologies.

 

Thanks

The short answer is not at this time. There's a good quick tip on this topic, below.

You can help make an enhancement a priority by voting up the below Ideastation post.

For now it looks like there is an addin that you can use work around this. I haven't tested it myself, but it looks like it will let you show all hidden bodies in a design.

I hope this helps!

This Show all body's is a big one I deal with large assembly's and when I get to a point where the files get large I am forced to switch over to SolidWorks. ----------Please vote for this. Show All Body's is a must have.------

Agreed it is a problem. "V" is a hot key for hiding things at the body level but it doesnt currently function to unhide them. In my huge assemblies with a dozen nested levels a hidden part is a pain to dig out and unhide!

One option that Ive been using for several months is AutoDesk's own Patrick Rainsberry ShowHidden Addin, works for Bodies, Components and can easily toggle the view of Bodies and Components from their on and off states.  Mr. Rainsberry states this Addin in not an official Addin but it has worked great for me, would not want to work with my complex designs without it!
