Greetings,

I have a folder called base components and need to copy bodies in place to a customize folder. Alignment is critical, so using move to create duplicates is less than ideal, plus I need to move a lot of them.

In another instance, I need to duplicate a whole folder of parts. I seem to remember seeing that somewhere, but can’t find it on the UI.

Thanks in advance,  
Marko
