The actual part file does not hold information for the library
category(actually called "group" - not to be confused with modeling groups)
that the part belongs to. Some old parts might do, but this is outdated.
MLCad has 3 "non-customizable" library groups: models, favorites and
document (of course, they can all be customized, but in a different way than
the rest of the library "groups" or categories).
The other groups can be edited and deleted via Settings/Groups/Group
configuration. To MLCad, these library groups are a search function.
