Moving individual Part studio documents into a single document with multiple tabs...
Hello!
When I first starting using Onshape I would naively make new part studio documents for every part that I was making for an eventual assembly. This has meant that my account is kind of cluttered with lots of part documents which could easily be moved into one whole document with the assembly.
Is there a way I can organise this so all part studios for a particular assembly can be retrospectively moved into a single document all together?
I know I'm not explaining it too well so please see screenshots for what I mean. Thank you!
p.s. The first screenshot is of the individual documents in my account and I would like them to become individual part studio tabs alongside the assembly shown in screenshot 2. Thanks again.

open each document and use move to. It will take the whole part studio to any document you like. Send original empty document to trash.
It is move, not copy.

This is basically the inverse of what you are trying to do: https://www.onshape.com/cad-blog/tech-tip-moving-tabs-out-of-documents-for-project-organization
In your case, the trick is to make sure there is an empty tab in the document before moving tabs to your "centralized" document (you can't have a document with no tabs in it). From there you can right click on the tabs you want to move and select "move to document" then delete the 'old' documents with the blank tab. Here's another forum post that references this: https://forum.onshape.com/discussion/8634/move-documents-and-folders
Keep in mind you can always group these into a folder of document to organize your space or even use labels https://cad.onshape.com/help/Content/labels.htm?Highlight=labels
