hello to all, I have a bit annoying problem, deleting aspects in .ipt files.

I start from the step sent by the customer, once imported I see the colors set by the customer and when I go to set the material the components do not change color, so I have to open every single .ipt and click on delete appearance confirm save and close, for every single piece.

Has anyone had the same problem? How did you solve this? Maybe there is a macro that by selecting ipt files also manually in a set opens deletes the look saves and closes?

Thank you very much in advance

one of the possible reasons could be the box "database settings" unchecked.

thanks for the answer, but I do not use inventor nastran

Sorry to ask my question again, but I need help.

I'll explain. I have a set of ipts that have appearance replacement and should remove appearance from every single file.

for now I do it for every single file "open - delete appearance - save - close"

my question is you could do an automation of this process?

Thank you so much!!

according to me you can do from the normal interface by selecting everything:

but the aspect replacement function can be on the single ipt and can be in the axieme.
in my case is on every single ipt.
if you could manage in iproperties would be easier.. Obviously it is a graphical parameter managed differently.

what I do not explain is that if a designer plays with the colors of the faces on hundreds of ipts you can not remove this “parameter” more easily. .
Thank you.

dopo mesi di ricerche... ho trovato questa regola, è un pò di tempo che la uso e non mi ricordo la fonte.. ma la ringrazio molto.
