Clone Assembly

[Amar005]

Hi All,

I would like to clone full assembly with same part names in another directory.When I go for cloning it always asks for prefix, suffix ,replace or rename.
Is anyone knows to clone same assembly with same part names.
Please suggest?

You really don't need to clone here.
When you are in the top-level assembly, just do: File > save as > New name in new directory
and you should be fine . . . unless I am missing something.

Don't forget to put what version of NX your are using.

jerry,
That will put the assembly file in the new directory but will not take the components with it. I think the OP is asking how to copy the entire assembly (assembly file and all component files) to a new folder.

Look at moog2's post in: thread561-274386

Thanks all.
Now it works by using space as suffix.

Defintely check Cowski's post out.

UG Zip is the tool you want. I use it all the time to ditch orpaned parts and junk files from the project folder.

No better way but Seimens probably should have deployed a native tool for this a long time ago.
