Introduction

Removes the history of the part so that the different steps to create the part aren't accessible/editable any more

With Simple copy only a non-parametric simple solid is produced, so if you want to change anything you have to go back to your creation file or history fix the issue then create a new simple solid.

Usage

Mark part of choice in the tree view and choose Part → Create simple copy.
