hi

We just moved to creo 3.

Unless i am being stupid I cannot rename parts in assembly mode only the active assembly.

Previously you where able to select individual parts in the assembly and rename in the assembly environment.

Now i have to open the individual parts and rename each file in part mode.

Am i missing something? this seems backwards from previous releases.

We don't use windchill or any other data management.

Hi,

according to https://support.ptc.com/appserver/cs/view/solution.jsp?n=CS179098 this is current Creo 3.0 behaviour.

Alternate Solution in assembly mode: 

  • File > Manage File > Rename
  • Click OK without changing the assembly name
  • Use the upcoming Assembly Rename dialog to rename individual components
