I thought about a new feature in MLCad where the user can define his own
groups to be show in the part preview and in the part tree. Each group will
have a certain rule (search criteria) which assigns parts to this groups.
The part assignment is done in a certain user-define able order.
The searching takes place in the part description only and therefor I will
not need the category then ... so I think I can live with it.

Finaly I hope this adds enough flexibility to MLCad to make finding parts a
bit easier than it is now.

of the parts do have this statement included ....

therefor I think it doesn't make sence to implement such a strategy into
MLCad, or how do you think about it?
Are there any planes to add category statements to all the parts of the
library?

I'd say there are no plans to add statements for all part files.

The 'default value' for category is the first word in the partname. • Since,
3001.dat doesn't have a 0 CATEGORY statement, its category comes from the • part
name, and the category Brick.
