copying assemblies, parts and drawings

copying assemblies, parts and drawings

copying assemblies, parts and drawings

(OP)
Hello gurus - the scenario
An assembly made up of parts, parts and assembly have drawings
I copy the assembly to another assembly, and get the option of renaming the assembly drawing with it - so far so good
it gives me option of changing the names of the saved parts to new parts in the assembly also - so far so good
but I want the drawings associated with the PARTS to be copied to the new names of the parts.

How do I do this? - I hope I have explained this correctly. reply here or to me at nigel.hoyle@allengears.com

RE: copying assemblies, parts and drawings

I think if you try the save as on your drawing it might ask you to rename the assembly it references and the lower level parts. The Drawing is the top level item because it uses both the Assembly and Parts.

RE: copying assemblies, parts and drawings

If you are working with Intralink copy and rename anything within Intralink without even opening Pro/E.
If you don't work with Intralink make you copy, open everything (parts, assemblies, drawings) and rename as you wish in session.
