      I finally found the check-box that hides the rest of the model while editing a group. I vaguely remember that it was in a funny spot. Now I realise that it isn't always best and it would be good if I could remember where that was so that I could toggle it on and off. I've searched everywhere.
      Can anyone remind me where that was?

        Window>Model Info>Components.

        I frequently use other components in the model for reference when editing a component so having the rest of the model hidden while editing isn't a good thing for me, either.

          Good for a shortcut-key.

          Works with editing Groups AND Components.
