Select everything space bar to hide.

Open Selection view type Sketch, hit enter, all sketches are selected, space bar to unhide.

that doesn't work for me, but i can copy the highlighted sketches into a new document. the goal has thus been achieved.

Typically, you need to click somewhere in the main window to reactivate the tree (but not in the tree, that will deselect the selection)

Visibility Manager macro

Show by type mode

Check All box, then again to hide all.

Then check Sketch, Part, and Body types, if applicable.

Ok, then I'll make a copy-paste of the code from the wiki page to the macro editor. I don't know any other way to download from wiki.
