i am using this photo software called picasa (http://picasa.com). when
in use, a thumbnail of the last image selected goes to a picture tray
area. a button click will hold image/s in the tray. another button
click clears them. this makes going back to select and use the same
image very easy.

it seems it would be nice to have a SW feature tray which would
operate the same way.

select a plane, part, sketch, feature ... and it goes to the tray.
need it for a your next action? click hold. all done? click clear.

navigating the design tree menu becomes more tedious as a part or
assembly grows. having to find your way amongst folders and features
that expand for no apparent reason makes matters worse.
 
2005 baby! They have added a new tree called the Task Pane. It wiill show
these thumbnails and descriptions you are talking about. It looks like it
will be very useful. I haven't used it yet but saw it in the rollout
seminars.
