Component.Visible (iam)

[marcin_bargiel]

i got subassembly  abc.iam which has three parts :  a:1, b:1, c:1 (one or two of them are always hidden)

when first time i put it to main assembly ---> main.iam,  some part are visible other are hidden - that GREAT !

but then when i need to  set on demand :  visible or not  - abc:1 using below function - all parts are set as visible !

SyntaxEditor Code Snippet

Component.Visible("abc:1")=True 

Component.Visible("abc:1")=False

and now a big question : why this function set visibility to all of my parts in "abc:1" not just to only ones which has set visibility   !????

it is at least not understandable behavior ...

i don't want to set visibility or hidden of all parts separately one more time in main.iam !

THANK'S A LOT FOR YOUR TIME !  Now works great !!!

In the meanwhile i did workaround, that also is OK.
