**The problem that this feature will solve:**  
When designing movable parts like doors, I often need to see the model in different positions, such as “open” and “closed.” Right now, I have to manually rotate the part every time, which is tedious. Duplicating the part in different positions isn’t ideal either, as changes to one copy don’t sync with the other.

**Brief description of the outcomes that you expect from this feature:**  
I’d like a feature to save specific part orientations (e.g., “open” and “closed”) and easily switch between them with a click. This would make it faster to review and present designs with movable components.

**What can’t you achieve without this feature?**  
Manually adjusting or duplicating parts slows me down and makes the workflow inefficient. A feature to save orientations would make working with movable designs much easier and more practical.
