Hi,
I created a inventor part by name "011-03-054-A-25x50 HS" 100mm in length. Used "011-03-054-A-25x50 HS" in a assembly and used the same part in another assembly. Then I created a ipart with a different length which is 250mm. Now I want to use 250mm length in the second assembly. How do I doit? I couldn't find an answer any where. I am using Autodesk Inventor 2013 in windows 7.
This was called configrations in Solidworks and was ver easy to use. can anyone help?
Cheers,
Viv

From the photo it looks like the iPart parent file is inerted in the assembly. Usually that happens when a part is "converted" to an iPart after being inserted into an assembly as a plain part. To "fix" this, first, make sure the iPart parent file is set up correctly with the proper keys, filenames, etc. then generate members from within the iPart. Now go back to the assembly and use component replace and replace the iPart parent file with the proper member that you just generated.
Thanks,
Mike
