Folders or Groups in the Browser

[Inventor Wishes]

Summary: Have the ability to place parts into groups/folders and view them in that context.

Description: Folders or groups in the IV browser.

How Used: This would allow you to place components or other browser entries into"groups" or folders. For example you may have a "fastener folder" or "sheet metal" folder.

Different from subassemblies it allows you to further refine the browser.

iParts, CC parts and template parts should have a "folder or group" name attached to them that causes them to be placed into that folder or group automatically upon placement.

You'll get my vote if they're honoured in Presentations - I assuming the Groups will be selectable.

My vote too! This is a great way to compress and organize the browser nodes.

They have been doing this in SolidWorks for years and I love it! I can't wait for Autodesk to get on board!

As a former SW user, this was one of the handiest features. I do hope INV gets on board with this.
