Rename Browser Nodes

[ludesroc]

I'm using Inventor 2010 and I would like to know if the new command (Rename Browser Nodes) is available trough the API?

Something like this...

' Rename the browser nodes using PartNumber.

' Set the control definition command.
Dim oRenameControlDef As ControlDefinition
Set oRenameControlDef = ThisApplication.CommandManager.ControlDefinitions.Item"RenameBrowserNodes")
oRenameControlDef.Execute

It is possible to invoke this command through the API, but that will just
result in the dialog being displayed. There's not a way to control the
command through the API. However, the actual work that the command does can
be easily accomplished through the API since you have access to the
information that can be used to create the name and you can change the name
of an occurrence.

Thanks Brian,

Actually, I wanted to save me some work...but I guess I would have to do it the hard way 🙂

Maybe I am missing what you want to do, but you might look at the macro
called Rename Browser by Matt Hutchinson on my web site.
