I would like know how copy a component of library and move to a library custom within category existente.

 

For the exemplo:

 

I have a library custom as a category created by "Custom Library > Bolt"

 

Bolt is a subcategory. I would like move a component copy from direct subcategory. (Bolt) See imagem in attachent.

Hi Joao Pirotta, 

 

The workflow which you described is limitation here. 

 

If you want to have families in new (sub) category, you should publish these families by yourself. 

 

Thanks,

-Rui

Hello,

 

Currently when you publish Part/iPart to your custom library, you can choose your own folder/category. If you copy a family from the standard library to your own library, the category hierarchy will be maintained because there is authorizing information for the specific category while the new folder/category has no or different authoring info.

 

Can you please share more information about this requirement? Also, feel free to log an idea on the Idea site: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-ideas/idb-p/v1232/tab/most-recent

 

Thank you!
