      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hello all, Taking a stab at iLogic assemblies, and while I can create one that works it won't suffice for what I need.&lt;BR /&gt;Disclaimer: Not a programmer and new at iLogic&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;The Goal: Create a configurable assembly (in our example, a Door) which&lt;BR /&gt;The Issue: I've got a great iLogic configurable assembly, but once i'm done making the door I want, I'd like to export the door, give it a new assembly name and new part names, and move on to the next door.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;This is all well and good, until we have a change and have to edit the door, in which case the iLogic tries to reference&amp;nbsp; the old part number from the 'master' door assembly and fails.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Is there a way to create a copy of whatever current configuration I have, with revised and new part numbers. Such an assembly would then also have to be editable.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Perhaps there's a better way to think about this task, either with iPart or iAssemblies. Either way, if there are resources that will help me create adaptable, sequentially numbered assemblies let me know &lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://forums.autodesk.com/html/@B4D44A73814D7FC0D950DEDFACB97081/emoticons/1f642.png" alt=":slightly_smiling_face:" title=":slightly_smiling_face:" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;-b&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi! I believe you need to use iLogic Design Copy (start Inventor in zero-doc state -&amp;gt; Tools -&amp;gt; iLogic Design Copy). The tool can help you spawn a totally or partially independent dataset to capture the new configuration.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Many thanks!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;so after playing with things, It seems that what I want to do, namely export an assembly to a new sub-folder with new names while holding on to the iLogic, is an advanced or even impossible task.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;In lieu of a solution, I'm going to implement a workaround involving the Vault Copy Design, and re-naming the parts but with the knowledge that if the assembly needs adjusting, it'll have to be done the old fashioned way of opening the part and adjusting the parameters.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thank you both, I have another post about iLogic coming up that will be somewhat simpler but I"ll make that a separate thread.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;This is exactly what I am trying to do with no avail. All the documentation, videos, books takes you to where you can make these configurable parts / assemblies, but now what. What do we do with them now that we can swap out and flex things around? Do most "copy design" this master file as a new name and swap out standard parts to make this new configuration?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;There has to be a way to do this, but maybe there is a TON of extra programming involved.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;We are doing configurable balconies and I have about (20) different sub-assemblies that are custom as well to be cycled in and out of the balcony depending on certain criteria. I dont know if I should have an assembly that ALL this stuff in it first, copy design that so I get all with the new name, then strip away what I dont need when its all configured? Seems like it would be easier to start from a master configurable assy, then save as all assemblies, and drawings based on that. But I cant find ANYTHING lol..&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If anyone has any guidance, I'd love to see it, maybe I am over complicating all of this.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
