Hi Drew

Unfortunately you are correct in that there is no options for organising the history tree into folders, this is because it heavily relies on parent/child setups. You can rename sketches and features to make them easier to find and give a better indication of what each functions is doing. I can make a suggestion to 3D systems for this to be added but for now I think your best bet is a good naming system.

Regards

Patick

Thanks for the input. I do rename my sketches and features. Every time a modification is made to a feature Design X automatically renames it, which is frustrating. Oh well, I guess I will just have to deal with it for now. Thanks again!
