[LDCad] Moving flex part between models - Philippe Hurbain - 2022-02-13
I think it has already be answered somewhere, but can't find it. How can I move a flexible part from one model to another? I can detach the flex part from model1, then use it as external file in model2, but how do I make model2 a self-contained mpd? Of course I don't want to use a text editor, there would be no challenge

This is currently not (really) supported.
But thinking about it the embed selection function should be able to handle this.
Same goes for detach. Problem with this is a flexible parts can contain multiple subfiles (it's technically a mpd).
Not sure why I didn't support this from the get go, probably a delayed thing I forgot about
