    Deformable Parts or Simple Extruded Stock Lengths with Partlist

    Parasolid Assemblies

    Is there any way that we can control the naming output of Parasolid Assemblies in NX. I was amazed to find having been given a file from another system with names I wanted to change that I simply could not do so. No matter how I tried too rename the files when output to Parasolid and imported...
