Best way to remove unused hardware
![EvanReese](https://profiles.onshape.com/7a7edd0c3fbfb6a010aceb85e8c111303e0dd6c45d6c0ea686920cfaf7c2ee4b.png)
We use McMaster a lot during development, which often means importing 5 similar items and only using one in a design. What's the best workflow to identify and delete ones we didn't use? I was considering using a "move to document" from the top-level assembly, and deleting anything left behind, then moving it back. Anyone got a better idea?

It will even give you a brief list of all the referenced parts moving. Clever.
Honestly if you delete a part studio, or the step, it would be nice if it would give the option to remove the other. It already gives a warning.
So on this menu, there should be check boxes for which tabs to delete, and which to just break the reference.
