Part Design

If you used the old part design workbench ( .16 and earlier ) you may have some re-adjustment to the now one. I more or less considered Part Design and Part workbenches to be pretty much sections of a larger workbench. In particular parts from the Part workbench were freely and commonly used in the Part Design workbench. This no longer seems to be the case. Now Part Design parts should be used inside a body and it seems that Part workbench parts cannot be moved into a body. ( example file would be nice ) In some ways a cylinder is not a cylinder. If you need a cylinder for the Part Design look under Part Design -> Part Design -> Create Additive Primitive -> Additive Cylinder
