i am doing is using an extrusion and making 20-30 different parts from that
extrusion. With iv 5.3 there was no work around or way to edit the extrusion
of all 20-30 files at one time but i am wondering if there was something to
allow this in iv 7.0
creating the parts originally is not a big deal but the time to edit can be
very large for such a small change as a radius or chamfer.
Any help would be appreciated as I am starting a new project and would be a
good time to try a new technique.
thanks,
Mark

the derived part works good as long as the trim length doesnt change. Just as
an example it would be like having 2x4 lumber with different trim lengths and
fabrication such as holes, notches, etc. My retailer who does training wasnt
able to find a way to do this but there must be a way or could be a way that
autodesk can make this work in future versions of inventor. ANOTHER way of
thinking about this would be if you were using the same sketch (extrusion) for
the parts, and you are sharing them across many parts. I can supply a dwg (or
8 of the same profile) that may possibly explain this
easier.

i-part works good the first time of making the part. what happens after we
make our assemblies and final drawings is now instead of the standard 2x4 with
an 1/8" radius now instead they decide that we will change to 1 1/2" x 3" with
a 1/2" chamfer on the corners. I do want to thank you both for the replies as
it has given me some ideas as to how i may be able to do a work around, but if
anyone does have anything else that may help it would be
appreciated.
