Re: How can I query the faces that highlight when I pick a feature?
You could use lastModifyingOperationId(context, query), against every face. It wouldn't be super efficient, but would work.
How can I query the faces that highlight when I pick a feature?
qCreatedyBy() works for things like Extrude and Revolve because those are creating geometry. It doesn't work for things like Move Face and External Thread because those only modify existing geometry. However if I click on a Move Face or External Thread feature in a Part Studio it highlights the relevant faces. Is there a way to query those highlighted faces?
Is there an option to 'Return to the Previous View' (eg, after rotating the view)

Thank you Onshape team for a great year of updates. I am looking forward to see what you bring to the table in 2025. Happy Holidays everyone.

Great updates. I was waiting for the curve approximation tools

Brilliant! That's made my day!
Re: Is there a way to change the colors of the interface (other than dark theme)
Being web based you could probably do some custom css
Also free life tip: don't lead with threatening people with law suits. Especially ones that are just blowing smoke. It makes people not like you from the first impression, which will really hold you back in life.
Re: How do I merge different documents in to one?
If they came from an import, you can reimport them with that option selected. If not, you can use the move tab function to move part studios into other documents.

Another great one! Im so happy to see all of the recent focus on curve quality control! The directional end conditions for loft and boundary are also going to save me a lot of time creating then deleting dummy surfaces.
