Disable auto scroll in tree after every operation

Post by run_the_race »

So I require to make a change, yes I know about TNI, followed best practises with ref sketches and datum planes, but there are still a lot of broken items I am slowly progressing through the model and fixing. The problem is after every operation, the tree scrolls down a few pages. I then scroll back to where I was, make the next change, the tree then scrolls again down to an error a few pages down. Is there anyway to disable the tree view auto scrolling to items with errors?

The worst part is two section look similiar, and I have already accidentallity deleted a few of the wrong things because it scrolled on its own, so I think I am looking at something, but now its something else.

I ideally one could mark those bodies as skip recompute, but I know thats not possible.

Hmm...

Edit>Preferences>General Selection tab, and tweak some of those settings.

Or, maybe

View>TreeView actions
