Problem: While using Copy Design tool the rules that have "Part names" are not updating themselves.
Solution: While Copy Design is working, it should override the rules as such:
Say we have a rule which uses a part named "Part1.ipt". Copy design should "Search and Replace" all the rules that has the string "Part1.ipt" to lets say "New Part1.ipt"
We have some assemblies ( as end products ) that has extensive ilogic rules. These rules consist of rules that are dependent on particular parts in the entire assembly. Every other customer of ours have different dimensions on their site. So we basically give out the parameters to our model ( like external length etc ) and the model updates itself.
Once we have the end model, we would want to copy the entire .iam to Vault but there is a problem. We want to change all the part and assembly names according to customer and vault it. If we change one part name, the rules which depend on parts does not update.
Say we have a part named Part1.ipt. We change this part name ( with Copy design/ilogic design copy etc ) to Part2.ipt. The rule inside the assembly will stay as Part1.ipt.
Do we have a component to copy .iam files while also changing the names inside the rules? And if not, can we get an updated version of Copy Design which also deals with rules as explained above. This feature shouldn't be really hard as you can read all the rules and just "Search & Replace" command could replace every single Part1.ipt to Part2.ipt.
