Opens a window where you create a new version of a part with a different downstream view.

Creates a new one-off version of the part. A one-off version is a branch version taken from any version within the normal version sequence (for example, A, B, C). A one-off version is labeled with the version from which it is created, followed by a dash and number, such as B-1.

A one-off version is used to record a unique modification to a released design. It is intended to support the modification of parts that have been recorded in a configuration, used to create an instance, and then modified. The fact that a part has been altered must be recorded in the system, so a one-off version of the altered part is created.
