Copy Features Without References

[jzecha]

I am proficient in Catia and Creo and wanted to know if there is a way to copy surfaces, points, or, lines and paste them without a reference?
I know how to do this in Catia, but I can't figure out how to do it in Creo.

Either paste them without references or be able to Isolate them after pasting.

There is a command to break external references, but don't have the actual command sequence to give.

You can paste them with reference and when you are done you can "collapse" them. Collapse is a command under model tab, editing, in creo4. However if you have family tables it seems collapse is greyed out.
