Cannot delete used STEP in 3D Package

Hi,

I cannot delete used STEP file in 3D package for footprint.

I've uploaded STEP, import it as body and break the link.

Now I cannot delete it since its "used" somewhere else.

 

Cannot delete it via browser.

Love those invisible chains and bonds between things 😄

I cannot move file to new project since that project is not in same project where the file is.

Something like this:
- Project 1
- Few Folders, files etc.
- Project 2
- Trash

Maybe this is the reason for this bug(which exists for too long).

 

File A has v1 and v2

v1 has link with File B. v2 does not have any link to File B.

 

File B cannot be deleted since then user cannot go back to v1(File A).

 

I saw this problem from too many users and it's the problem for Fusion 360, not just F3E.

Sadly, the TRASH folder (or project, actually) have to be on the top level, as a Project.
Fusion doesn't properly support folders.

Yes, I made Trash as a project in root.
