renaming parts/assemblies removed from PDM.

[Inoram]

I am trying to rename parts/assemblies on a project someone sent me. But I do not use PDM, so this is the error. Does anyone know how to "unlink" the files from PDM? I am still searching the help files and the menus.

Look under operations to see if this is an ATB function. Not knowing exactly how PTC links things to PDM within part and asm files, it seems a logical place to start.

There is a config.pro option.

let_proe_rename_pdm_objects YES

That does it, thanks.

Hopefully there are no other things linked in there that I am missing.

Now if could figure out the Use Template option OR the selection filter options so I can rename a bunch of certain files at one time.
