ilogic - replacing components while keeping ilogic links

[RyanRausch]

I have an assembly that currently consists of two parts, the Body (shown in blue) and the Front (shown in Red).   The end goal of this assembly for it to be used as a "start part"  were we can save as and replace the components to create many different sizes w/ varierious options.

I started by creating parameters in the assembly that through ilogic change parameters in the individual parts which works great.  I use a form and can create any size of part I need.  Being that I want this to operate as a "start part" I would open this file, save as the part number I need, save as & replace the individual components.  However when I save as & replace the individual components the file name in the ilogic doesn't change so the rule breaks.

Is there a way to have the shown ilogic change part numbers when I save as and replace the individual components?

Thank You

You can rename them in the browser and that name should stay when the part is replaced using a component replace. You can use the renamed browser name in your iLogic rule

Can you show me an example of what you were thinking?

Hi @RyanRausch 

In the browser, remove the ":1" from your component names. So that "MF Bucket Body:1" becomes "MF Bucket Body" for example... then have your code use the same "stabilized" name. Once that is done your rule will continue to work when you replace the bucket body file with a different bucket body file, etc

I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
