Rename Files - Preference
Renaming of active file in PLM using SolidWorks menu File > Save As:
If the integration preference Rename file in PLM on File > Save As
operation is set to True, and when you perform File > Save
As operation on active file, integration will perform the same set of operations
as Rename > Active file.
Note:
- Before running these operations, you must set the following SolidWorks option to True.
- Only those files which exist in PLM are considered for renaming and/or uploading into PLM.
- If the preference Allow operations on previous revisions is set to true; then during these menu operations, integration allows you to rename and/or correct the file references of previous revision of files also. By default, integration allows to perform rename and upload of latest revisions of files. Note that during Edit/View file in Integration, integration corrects the references and upload the file even if the file is of previous revision irrespective of this preference value.
- During these operations, integration renames only the current version of the file which exists locally. Other versions of the files are not renamed, they retain their original names.
- After renaming the files, ensure that the referenced file names are corrected in all the files that have references to this file. Do not rename a file multiple times unless and until the referenced filenames are corrected in all the files that have references to this file.
