My inventor files are in a subfolder in my project folder so that my file structure on my hard drive looks like the following:
Designs
-Project A
-Inventor
-AutoCAD
-Documents
-Other
-Project B
-Inventor
-AutoCAD
-Documents
-Other
etc.
Through Autoloader I was able to choose to load ONLY the Inventor folder to load and rename the folder so that in the Vault my structure looks like:
Designs
-Project A (folder full of only inventor files)
-Project B (folder full of only inventor files)
This is what I wanted. However, now when I create new files and load them in, I can't direct them to that folder directly, so what I get is:
Designs
-Project A (folder full of all inventor files added through autoloader)
-Inventor (folder full of all inventor files added subsequently through Inventor Add-in)
-Project B (folder full of all inventor files added through autoloader)
-Inventor (folder full of all inventor files added subsequently through Inventor Add-in)
I can't find a way through the add-in to redirect to the main folder - is there a way to do this or do I have to reload all of my files with the existing subfolder structure?
Also, if some of the files in Project B reference Project A files, is there a way that I can create a search path there? It wants to upload duplicate files under Project B of Project A files.
Please help!
Thank you.
Hi,
You can do the following and that should take care of the 1st issue.
> I hope you have the project file (IPJ) under Designs\Project A. Move that to \Designs\Project A\Inventor
> Map the Project to $/Designs/Project A
Now what ever the new file you add under "\Designs\Project A\Inventor" will go to "$/Designs/Project A"
