Add Custom Parts to a Personal Library

Add Custom Parts to a Personal Library

I’d like to suggest a feature that could really expand the flexibility of the Parts Browser: the ability for users to add their own custom-modeled parts to a personal library.

Currently, when editing a part by using the Cut and Combine tools, I am not able to save that Part and access it later in another bash. Being able to save custom parts to a personalized library would make the workflow much more powerful and personal.

How this could work is:

  • Allow users to save a selected part as a custom part
  • Create a 'My Parts' sections within the Part Browser
  • Support naming and tagging custom parts
  • Enable drag-and-drop of the custom parts just like existing parts in the Part Browser

This could turn the Parts Browser into not just a static library, but a dynamic tool that evolves with each user.

Having a "Donated parts bin" where creators could add parts for the entire community would be a great optional add here as well!
