Is it possible to have the names that are displayed (see green arrows) to be properties of the part instead of the file name?
This would be helpful when working with numbered parts.

you should be able to just double-click on the name in the browser tree (slow click, wait a beat for that second click).
Hi,
You can do it with iLogic. I think this link does what you're after.

That defeats the whole purpose of using numbered parts..
My question is more if it's possible to have the displayed name to be different then the file name. Maybe link it to a Ipropertie just as the title or another Ipropertie.
It can be changed but it will not be linked. iLogic/addin can "automate" the change but you'll need to set it up on all computers in the company and on each update.
Inventor automatically use filename as Part Number.
What do you mean by "numbered parts"?
How are you using "numbered parts"?
I use "one part one drawing".
ipt/iam and idw has same name and it's Part Number of the part.
iPart/iAssembly will create each member of similar part and a drawing can link to them.
