Footprint editor. Footprint properties. 3D models.

There's currently a model specified, with a path of:

${OneDrive}/KicadAssets/vendor/model-1.stp

Suppose it's the wrong model and I need to update it. Click on the pathname and at the right edge of the text box, a little folder icon appears. Click the icon and a file browser pops up. Click the correct model.

The path is now:

C:/Users/firstname.lastname/OneDrive - Companyname/KicadAssets/vendor/model-2.stp

And anyone else using this library with my OneDrive share, will see a broken model because the firstname.lastname part of their path is different.
