Organize Model tree

Is there a way to automatically organize your model tree?

At my work we use a lot of parts in our models and many of them are the same parts, when we copy a model from e previous order sometimes all the parts in the model tree are not organized by my colleagues and it drives me crazy. So I'd like to organize my model tree numerically only I never found this feature, so I do it by hand every time.

Try "Alpha Sort Component" in the drop down on the "Productivity" section on the "Assemble" tab

On the Assemble tab, click the dropdown menu for "Productivity". In that list there is an "Alpha Sort Component" tool. I think this is what you're looking for.

As I recall, this is in a weird place because it is part of an "Assembly Bonus Tools" add-in.

Does the Alpha Sort do what you want?

Since no one has mentioned it yet I'd suggest they try using the "Alpha Sort Components" function in the productivity menu. 😂
