problem inventor 2009
after making a model (ipt) and its 2d drawing (idw) complete with quotation , I realize (for design needs) that could be useful a modified copy both in part format (ipt) and in 2d drawing (idw) .
How can I get them?
 
now you have the ipt a and idw a. open ipt a and with save copy by name call it ipt b. make your changes on ipt b. temporarily rename the ipt a in ipt ac, open the idw a, the software will stop because it does not find ipt to you tell them to point on ipt b and the table will open with the table of the ipt b. save copy by name and save it as idw b. close without saving, rename ipt ac in ipt a and the game is done.
keep three things present:
1) I have the 2008 version and I'm sure that this system also works with 2009 and following, but I don't know if some specific command has been implemented to do it (*) and then there can be a faster method.
2) It works if the geometric differences between a and b are not substantial, but you will check it in person.
3) check that what appears on the chart and on the list parts is right.

(*) I think it is not because the autodesk gentlemen are more committed to studying marketing strategies so that we can spend more and more, than to evolve the software.

Bye!
 
I confirm that it also works with 2010 (as long as there are no middle pdm).
I have not yet dared to install it, but it is a function announced on 2011, if I do not remember badly.. .

but is it not easier to use the "project file manager" now called "design assistant" ??
dx mouse on a.idw file -> management menu -> dx mouse on the box "no" column "action" -> select copy -> double click on "name" boxes -> rename files -> save ......finished.

Hi.
Yes, but I have seen that few users are familiar with the "project file manager" and for only one file I would say that more or less we are there. the "your" method is to be used taxally in case of copies of complex axioms.

Hi.
with this you do not get the same result of the method of nipples, you will have a copy with other name of the idw design but always connected to the first ipt (in the example, starting from a.idw reported to a.ipt, you will get a b.idw connected always to a.ipt).
So it's like making a "salva copy with name", the point is also succeeding in replacing a.ipt with b.ipt in b.idw, which is why you do that long procedure. I know that in 2011, even if I don't have it, an appropriate command was added to do so much easier.

absolutely not! you are wrong... I use this method from a lifetime and it always went well.

ok maybe I'm wrong, but explain me better because, I reread that you have written several times and for me so you get a copy of the idw that points to the first ipt... I don't understand how you can change that part of the drawing.
and then we have discussed many times here, even in the past, of this problem and the solution has always been that of them renameing the files (at least until the new function of 2011), then we would always be wrong all.. .
However let me know where I'm wrong, if you find a simpler solution I'm just happy with it:
 
I attach a video.
ok, your method works but a difference there is: so you create the new ipt (in example p2), with our method instead you can replace the part with a different but already created previously.
maybe you can do it anyway with project file manager, doing "copy" for the idw and "replace" for the ipt, you should try.
 
I have a problem with inventor field calculation beams in the model viewer I do not understand;
the price wk.......... module section torsio
the quota jk..........modulo stiffità torsionale
Where can I find the values?

What does it have to do with this discussion?
