I am working in the Cable & Harness tutorials for Inventor 2014. I changed the RefDes for part 360124 with no problem. Then I tried to change the RefDes for parts 360575:1 and 360575:2. In the Harness Properties dialog box I could not get the RefDes to change. I could neither erase the U? RefDes or get it to type over it to change it to U7 for part 360575:1 or U8 for part 360575:2. Why did I have no problem with the first one, Part 360124 but then cannot change the others? Thanks for any info!
did you forget to attach something?
or are we supposed to know what those numbers mean?
Supply the exact url for the Tutorial step you are on.
I was recently working through this tutorial and got stuck here also. It is easy to resolve, back up one step in the tutorial to "Create a Harness Assembly". After creating the Harness Assembly you can then edit/change the RefDes of the various parts. I wasted a half hour on this before finally going over the previous steps realizing I had missed that one. Tutorials can be maddening at times.
