Reset visibility of fields of all/multiple symbols

[tofi]

Hi,

Kicad V9.0.1

I edited Symbol Fields Table to generate a BOM.
I added a field MPN and Package and set it to visible to have it in the BOM.
I don’t know how, but it sets these fields of all all Symbols in the schematic to visible.

How can I reset the visibility of all/selected symbols in the schematic ?

I tried to select all symbols, then right click “Update Symbols from library”,
selected the fields "MPN and Package " and “Update/reset field visibilities”,
but fields keep visible.

thanks
