Where are partials actually located? The “show in finder” is failing, even though they can still be used. (Yes, I restarted the Mac). I’ve done searches all over, but can’t find a thing.

**Partials** are only available inside your project. The context menu “Show in Finder” does nothing.  
However, if you want something like a Partial but want to share it between projects, you can use **Externals**. Those are saved to the file system and you can locate them via “Show in Finder”-
