Until then you can collapse the body.

Re: Select what you want to see in the Document Tree
You're using Windows, right? I don't remember how the tree is styled (and I used FC on Win at work today ), it depends on the operating system and/or desktop theme. In some operating systems, there are very useful lines joining elements to their parent (Body, Part container, etc.). In Preferences/General/General, you can set a stylesheet that reproduces this styling. Personally I prefer my programs to comply with the desktop theme (managed by the OS), and these stylesheets are too different from my desktop theme, and I find that light areas such as the tree don't have enough contrast. I edited one of the stylesheets to only keep the changes to the tree with a pure white background:
But I had a lot of trouble editing it, I'm in no way an expert and my custom stylesheet is no longer working in v0.18. triplus copied me a bit of code to try some time ago in another topic but I didn't copy it then, nor did I bookmark the topic and now I have to search for the topic again...
I would also like the lines and arrows to be darker, but I couldn't for the life of me find how to darken the png icons used by the stylesheets (on Windows they should be in ..\AppData\Roaming\FreeCAD\GUI\Stylesheets\images\)

But my issue still persists, so in addition to the Model tree, I need to style the Tasks panel.
Well I did more tests with my stylesheet, and created new icons. How do you like my WinXP-style tree?

Maybe not surprisingly, I love it.

Re: Select what you want to see in the Document Tree
Hehe... I like it too. I streamlined the node icons (+/-) to remove the shading effect, in fact like the Qt "Simple Tree Model" screen capture I posted here: https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic. ... 20#p257914

But I still have issues with it, now in the Data tab, so I had to disable it for now.
