PartDesign Clone

Description
PartDesign Clone creates a linked copy of a selected object. Most types of objects are accepted, as long as they are single solids. The main use for the PartDesign Clone is to use an object created in another workbench for a PartDesign Boolean feature. It can also be simply used to create linked copies.
