CATMaterial library
CATMaterial library
(OP)
We have recently had to rename our material library. Now, many operators are getting desk errors, because the material library can not be found. Under Links for the files, it shows the link as broken for the material library. Is there a way to fix this issue, without having to reapply material to all parts using the new library and saving the files. I thought since I changed the file name under options, everything would be fine.
Should I check the box "Link to File" in the Apply Material window?
Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Is there no way to reassociate our existing components to the new library?
Again, should I use the "Link to file" option?

CATIA in the File System uses the exact file names when it creates the links.
If you were using VPLM or VPM, the link is to the database identifier, and the user cannot change (or even see) that.

We are having to reapply material to every part prior to importing into matrixOne.
I was hoping there was a way to at least update the CATMaterial library at the product level.
