Is there a way to search for a document through who it is "Owned by"?
I am looking for a part owned by my friend. I know his work is public. He does not remember the name, description, or part number. He is also not in an area with internet, so he can not check himself or share with me at the moment. If I could search who the document was owned by I would be able to find his work. If there…

New Feature: Configurable Text Box
Ever wanted to create multi-line configured text? Now you can! Boasting a mediocre regeneration speed and a solid handful of inputs, the Text Box featurescript lets you do just that. Snag the feature here: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/013a3a2af7ff812f3502ef95/w/0076c51513cb240fd5048c18/e/f05c226759cac7af57f44b4d…
