iLogic to Change Browser Name of Part to Part Number

[felix.cortes5K3Y2]

Hi Forum,

I want to add a part using the following command provided by inventor:

Dim componentA = Components.AddContentCenterPart("occNameA", "Fasteners:Bolts:Hex Head", "AS 1427 - Metric",
                                                 "M3 x 16", position := Nothing, grounded := False, 
                                                 visible := True, appearance := Nothing)

However, I'd like to change the browser name to the Part Number given in the description. I've read through the post named: Using iLogic to Rename Browser Nodes. However, that post renames all of the browser items and I wouldn't want to do that.

How can I name the component on the browser to it's correct Part Number?

Best regards,

Felix

did you try:

 ComponentA.name = "partnumber_1"   ..??

(the name must be unique!)

That didn't seem to work since the name is Read Only. I can retrieve the part number by:

Dim PartNumber As String = iProperties.Value("occNameA", "Project", "Part Number")

How can I set the browser name to the PartNumber?

Best regards,

Felix

Hey @felix.cortes5K3Y2 , 

It seems like renaming occurrence name to part number can meed your needs: 

componentA.Occurrence.Name = iProperties.Value("occNameA", "Project", "Part Number")
