Changing file and folder names NX5
Changing file and folder names NX5
(OP)
Hello,
I've made a model with Unigraphics NX5 on my pc but now I want to copy it to another pc. The problem is that the folder names are different and UG can't find the files anymore.
I also want to change the file names of all the parts and assemblies but I'm afraid that this will cause a lot of errors.
Is there a easy way or setting which will avoid all these errors?
Thank you!

As for copying an assembly have you looked at the Clone function yet?

If i were you i'd only change the name of the top level part,then 'save-as" each part from within the assemly.
Athough if it's not a big assembly you could re-name them all, but only if you can remember what they were changed to , then you could right click on them in the navigator and "replace component"
To change the load options, go, file-options-assembly load options,then from the "load" drop down, set to "from search folders", then browse using the "add folder to search" drop down.
