Bye.
I know very little inventor, trying to meet this difficulty.
I'm working in a lot of different parts, at some point I'd like to rename a part.
if I renounce the part, such as the name "park", through the browser (left window), in "partb", the name of the file, in the workbook, remains comunuqe the old one.

Moreover if I decide to delete through inventor the "partb" file this is not deleted from the workbook. I'm supposed to do it manually by reminding me that the file name is "park".

is the problem solved? or how do you handle this?
 
I usually change the names directly from the workbook, if you do it from the browser, as you saw, you don't change the file name... before changing the names to the parts, remember that when you go to open the axieme composed of those parts, inventor will go looking for the parts with the old name, then you will have to manually restore the links. .

If they're a couple of files, it's okay as you say, maybe you do first.
otherwise you should use the design assistant.rename what you want and the relationships between files are automatically updated.:smile:
 
thanks for the suggestions.
I tried to use the desgn assistant but the problem seems to remain.
or change the name of the axieme, but not in the file.
Am I wrong? Do you know any explanatory videos?
 
Hi.
changing the file name in the browser is not the right method.
to rename the file you should always use the design assistant.
what makes you see the browser at the top of the job, is not the file name,
but a property of iproperties, after renamed the file, you have to right at the top of the name of the part, choose "iproperties", then click the subschede "project", then change the property "number part" by hand with the name of the updated file.
if you renounce the file the two directions of the file name and name-part do not coincide.
the design assistant does this automatically, as well as maintain relationships.
this because you leave the possibility to change name to the parts, leaving the file name unchanged.
you can also rename the work within the browser, but this is another thing.

Bye!

in your first post, ask how to do to rename a part and automatically update the workbox. solution=design assistant.
now you say you want to rename the axieme and automatically this name is renamed into the file? What name?what file?
Maybe I misunderstand something
You better explain what you want to do.
 
Hi, I found the solution!

I'm getting the problem back.
we hypothesize to work on a set and put inside the parts.
in a second time we need to rename one or more parts.

the solution is illustrated in this videohttp://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=ym8mpqi_cii#!
and illustrated in this articlehttp://inventor-tales.blogspot.it/2012/11/renaming-files-in-autodesk-inventors.htmlyou need to be careful, once opened the axitant design you need to bring the mouse exactly where indicated otherwise it does not work.
 
I have never been able to solve one thing but is to introduce the boards into the design assistant to maintain the connection. I always had to do it by hand to recycle it!
I also tried with the professional version 2013 but nothing.
How are you doing?

I resume this discussion because I would also have problem (use inventor 2014):
with design assistant I rename 3d files (assiemi or parts), but I did not understand if there is a way to rename 2d files. Any idea?
At the moment I renounce the 2d in resource management, but if there was a way in the design assistant would be more comfortable (use a unique interface and me the cable).
 
Hi.
correct me if I am wrong but be careful to use the design assistant when the renamed file is also present in other assemblies, the result will be that when you open the other together inventor will look for the old file name.
 
Thank you, I noticed. in fact the advantage x me at the moment is minimal, I must see how to districate myself:confused:
but also using the vault there would be the same problem? or hook files to different assemblies automatically?
 
How can you solve this problem? ! ?
I'm finding myself to have to rebuild the links of every group that included the renamed parts! !
Help! !

Thank you.

explains the problem better, did you rename parts (how much?) and the assieme/i no longer find them?
In addition to rename them you also changed the number part in iproperties?
if the parts are few and the assemblies many, you should give back the original name to the parts, so the assemblies adjust, then see how to do according to your needs
 
the only one is to use vault that automatically recreates links between files. If you use design assistant, you need to open the assemblies and reassign the modified file. I remind you that to rename (or copy) solid and tabled with design assistant you must select the table and open it as for inventor it is she to "command" and in this way the two files will remain connected.

Hi.
I didn't know that!
Can the vault reassociate files already renamed?
I mean, do you know that that file that was called "pippo" and that is no longer found, must replace it with the file "palla" ex "pippo" ?
if it is so one day or the other I decide to use it even if they are in single station.
rather I don't understand what you mean with "if you use design assistant, then you need to open the assemblies and reassign the modified file"
with the design assistant you can do these actions: copy, rename, replace, helimine.
but do everything from there, you don't have to open the assemblies and reassociate the files....
 
I'll explain better, but alas, I think there's no solution:
I have so many asses that are composed by the same parts.
I opened one of these assemblies and renamed the parts, using the design assistant (I renamed the file, so also the "number part"), convinced (in my ignorance, sigh) that they were automatically resolved in all assemblies... but not!!
When I opened the other assemblies, I had to solve all the links.

So I was wondering if it was possible, without a document or the vault (in the company we have nothing!), to be able to rename the parts, solve the links, etc. without becoming stupid... but at the end of the day, after having dismayed all day, it is not possible.

But I discovered (obviously after losing 2 hours to solve all links), that I can leave the parts with the original names and change the "number part" to call them as I want (I need to give them numerical codes), without creating disasters, so now I started doing so and should go well...
Then, if the document arrives, we will rethink. . .

Thank you.

What kind of license do you have of inventor?
the vault basic seems to be included in all versions, just install it and create the environment.
we started using it and I have to say that it solves a lot of problems.
logically you have to spend some time configuring everything and migrating the existing archive in the correct way.
 
Yes, we have the basic, but it is not configured,... as you say you should be made operational, but I am the last one here and I do not think we will start using it today:)
cmq I will present it, we will see how to solve the situation... In fact with the 3d it is essential to have a document that manages the parts, otherwise it is a mess!

Thank you.
