Controlling reference point display

You can use the ViewPart Display Options and the ViewAssembly Display Options menu items to control the display of reference points in the current viewport on a part or on the assembly. Turning off the display of reference points is useful for generating a clean printed image of a part or the assembly. Even though you choose not to display reference points, they are still a feature of the part or assembly. For more information on reference points, see The reference point.
