To change a part's name that has multiple insertions in assemblies
To change a part's name that has multiple insertions in assemblies
I have 2 assemblies and drawings of those assemblies. in both the same part is among the parts.
I want to change the name of the part that is in both assemblies with the Design Assistant, but i am afraid that if i will choose one of them and change the part file's name, the other assembly will be damaged. is it true?
I think this might happen because when i open only the part in Design Assistant, it doesn't let me change it's name, so, Design Assistant might not know where this part is inserted in.
True, if you change it for 1 assembly in the DA the other assembly will no longer find the filename and give you the resolve dialog box to point it to the proper file again.

Create a dummy assembly containing both your existing assemblies.
Use the dummy in Design Assistant to change the part file's name.
This will propagate down through.
Or just change the name in explorer and resolve both links.
