After importing a large assembly as a step file into Solidworks, and after parsing and processing is complete, I receive a message stating:
Large assembly imported. Components have been compressed. Use “unsuppress” to show desired parts and sub-assemblies.
The problem is that the “unsuppress” option does not exist, after RMB in the tree. What is the correct procedure here?
Thank you.

Can you increase the large assy threshold before importing the STEP file?
Is the “Suppressed” option deselected in the RMB > Customize section?

Thanks CBL,
I couldn’t find the “customize” section for the RMB, however I did find that I can add the Unsuppress icon to the Features toolbar, which I did, and it worked out ok.
