Is it possible to copy a subassembly from one folder to another so as the parts, which it consist of, don't get suffix "_" at the end of their names?

Hello, everybody!

Is it possible to copy a subassembly from one folder to another so as the parts, which it consist of, don't get suffix "_" at the end of their names?

When I do it now I usually get these:

Nut_M8

Nut_M8_

Screw_M6

Screw_M6_

Washer_12

Washer_12_

and so on.

Thank you in advance.

Best regards, Vladimir.

    Use "Back up" instead of Save As.

    When doing Save as Copy, you have three options:

    1. Template
    2. Prefix
    3. Suffix

    You have to choose one of these options. I tried playing around with the template option to see if you could use asterisk space asterisk, but it did not work.

    I do not see a way to do it without using one of the three options.

        Good morning,

        thank you very much for your answer!

        I didn't pay attention to this option but now I realize that's a great one.

        Best regards, Vladimir.
