1.5 Organizer:

1.5.1 Category Modified:

"Bolts, Welds & Components" categories modified.

1.5.2 New category added:

New category added to find start & end point of the parts, named as "Tofind_Same start & end point (Refer Count in Object browser)"

New organizer filter (ob-Part_All_Steel.OrgObjGrp) & new property template (Duplicate parts.propertytemplate) added for the same.

You can use this category to find the duplicate profiles from the "Count" in object browser.

For an example, If 2 profiles are having the same start, end points (Duplicate profiles) in all 3 axes ,you will find the "Count" as "2" in object browser.

Addtional notes: You may find the profile count more than 1 but which are not duplicate due to position parameters from this category.

For an example, you will find the "Count" as "2" in object browser, if 2 profiles are having the same start & end points in all 3 axes,
but controlled the position with the help of "Part "position" tab.

So this category can be used to identify the parts which have the same start & end points in all 3 axes, then you can get the duplicate parts
from the same if any available.

(File > Settings > Options < units & decimals > catalogs > Area > kept as mm2 instead of m2)

1.9 Model template:
