Hi Tim,
would it be enough to have some sort of extra window opened on request and
showing the tree of an individual selected part or mpd?

| (...) Hmm, I see what you're saying. I am envisioning a tree where you can check if you want to see: • Submodels • Official Parts • Unofficial Parts • Primitives Each one can be checked/unchecked individually. So, say if I just wanted to see (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.mlcad, FTX)
