Hello everybody,
i've recorded a macro that convert the old mating conditions into the new assemblies constraints, closes all the windows (info window, assembly constraints window, etc...) , then in the ant toggle the display constraints to OFF (both of them).
The problem is that i did this in a specific part and now if i playblack the macro in another part, i get an error on that the macro cannot find the specific part.
Is there a specific attribute that i can fill in in the macro so that this is valid for all our parts?
I've attached the macro, in the last two rules you will see 7204-000-1672/1-03 and this should be changed into something so the macro is excecutable independ of the filename.
Is this possible?

Many thanks!

Best regards,

answering on the question have you tried
to use the comandline utility refile_part to do this?
