⚠️ Removed features

Removed part oversizes attributes

Oversized attributes on parts properties have been removed for code maintainability reasons. This type of functionality made it too complex to analyze and export part geometry.

The alternative is to apply these oversizes on you geometry.

We understand that this removal may impact your workflow. However, sometimes difficult but necessary choices must be made to move forward.

If this feature was important to you, remain on version 7.0.1.
