Slice and create two parts ?
Often, I wish I could use a feature that I used to use in TurboCAD where you can slice a part with a plane and two parts would be created. While I'm sure it's a lot easier in a non-parametric program like TurboCAD (parrts are not named, just on layers), I would think it could be done in Alibre.
The parts could maybe split into an assembly(?), or maybe better just two separate parts. Maybe since duplicate parts are of the form xxxxx<1> and xxxxx<2>, the split parts could be xxxxx<A> and xxxxx<B>.
Any one have any opinions on this?
Thanks,
Eric
