Re: Gingerbread cutter
Yep, there are several ways to skin this CAD. Don't know if there's an approach that's not fiddly, though, even with OP's commendably clean sketch.

Have to agree that a folder structure on the left would be a more "normal" way of doing it… And also more efficient as once you go into a folder you don't see the upper levels anymore and you have to go back from the path at the top to go back down somewhere else.
Maybe that's a case where re-inventing the wheel doesn't make sense and the good old expandable tree is a proven way of doing this!
Other than that there's some good stuff in here for sure!

We've come across an issue with SUPPRESS FROM THIS BOM with some legacy data that is not performing correctly. We are temporarily disabling until a preventative fix is in place. It is our #1 priority to get this re-enabled as soon as possible.
edit:
SUPPRESS FROM THIS BOM has been re-enabled.

Re: Improvements to Onshape - June 27th, 2025
I'm very confused. Does the new file organization UI help anyone? I don't understand why I would want to open a folder and have 2 separate windows for folders and documents. Please at least give us an option to keep the old UI. I love Onshape, but this is very frustrating.
Edit: if you watch the "DOCUMENTS PAGE" video, some of the new features with the columns and stuff seem pretty useful, but having 2 separate windows open up is just so clunky especially since they are split horizontally. If the left hand side was folders and the right hand side was documents that would make a little more sense.
Re: Improvements to Onshape - June 27th, 2025
Is there any way to revert the changes to the document page? I preferred the older UI since I did not have a lot of documents/folders.

@lana But reading the tea leaves is half the fun of F5 Fridays. Bug fixes are sometimes more exciting to me than feature drops honestly.
Re: Improvements to Onshape - June 27th, 2025
@Derek_Van_Allen_BD Don't read too much into FeatureScriptVersion names. Most of the time new entries correspond to one or another bug fix. This one happens to be responsible for several Sheet metal cone-related fixes that did not make it into the previous release, but were not deemed bad enough to delay releasing the functionality because of them.

Very nice update. Having the ability to exclude from a single BOM will allow us to do stuff we weren't able to and had no good workaround!
