How to set the "Project" iProperty using Vault Basic.

[will.astill]

Hi.

I'm trying to change the "Project" iProperty on a load of drawings in my vault to save me having to do it individually on each drawing.

I can use the Edit Properties dialogue to do everything else I want, but even if I add new properties to the list using the "Select Properties" button, "Project" isn't one of the options.

Is there a way I can do this? Seems like it should be there to me.

Hello,

Guess this 'Project' is an iProperty from your file.

Have you mapped the 'Project' property to inventor drawing files in Vault.?

Ah! Thank you.

I went in and mapped the property and it's there now.

Seems strange that "Project" is editable in Design Assistant but needs to be manually mapped in Vault.

Is there a reason for this?

Link to instructions is here for anyone else struggling with this.

Note that in Vault Basic, the setting is just in Vault Settings -> Properties and not on the "Behaviours" tab as the instructions say.

FYI: I'm talking about the default "Project" property, under the "Project" tab in the standard iProperties.

This isn't a custom property or anything.
