Components renaming without loosing reference.
Components renaming without loosing reference.
(OP)
Hi Everyone,
recently in NX 8.5 I tried to rename some components out side NX which used in assemblies,
wn I opened assembly file the renamed parts are missing, is there any way to link the new parts???

RE: Components renaming without loosing reference.
But since you didn't do it that way go to the assembly tree and rmc (right mouse click) on the old component and Replace Component, you should be able to figure it out from there. It helps if the new component is open in NX when you do this, but not necessary.
If the new component is simply the old component renamed and modified then there's a good chance that your assembly constraints will associate correctly.

RE: Components renaming without loosing reference.
Tried as you said to use Replace component, It's working pretty good,
but the problem is assembly contains more than 1000+ components, So its taking huge time to rename all....
is there any grip routine to control this whole drama with Excel????

It's not "too late" still we have time to fix it,
Im unable to get my desired "assembly tree" by "cloning" too......
It would be great help if anyone show me correct way to close it.
