Why is the project file changed in Inventor 2016

[freekd99]

Does anyone know why project files in Inventor 2016 have no default "imported components" folder anymore?

See attached images.

I was very easy to use a library in step file format because the files would automatically appear as Inventor files in the workspace subfolder "Imported components". In Inventor 2015 it was still available BUT NOT ANYMORE!

Now I have to choose a folder for every imported component again and again. 

Why is it? And can it be changed? 

For example choosing a default folder somewere else?

Thanks in advance

I think that project setting its no longer avaliable in 2016 because of the new ANYCAD capability.  Not sure if there's a way to define the default location or a change via the registry.  But I will look...

Hi, FreekDM

Thanks for your feedback, for convert workflow in Inventor 2016, it preset the location to the location of the source file. I will log it as a request in our track system.

Many thanks,
