Making the tree more efficient, can we place the BaseFeature in the body

Post by freedman »

Since the Body is a container, is there some way to place the whole BaseFeature in the Body container? It would be fine if a copy of the BaseFeature is still in the Body like it is today, I would just like the BaseFeature reference included so it stays with the Body.

Once you get a model with a bunch of imported Step files there are BaseFeatures all over the place, one wrong deletion and it's tough to figure out what happened.

I currently have to place everything in a Part container; so I might have a Part that has 10 part containers in it, all with there own objects, origins and taking up space in the tree.
Thanks
