Interpart Expressions on Partfamily-Members

Hey,

I'm sending you my question because I'm sure you can easily give me an answer.

I have a partfamily with about 400 members. In an assembly I use multiple instances of the partfamily. Normally the instances are all different.
In the assembly I have some Interpart Expressions, which refer to the Partfamily members. The reference stay when I change the variant, everything okay!

But now when I change the variants so that I have one variant twice in the assembly then the Interpart Expressions of one of the members gets destroyed. I think this is because they have the same part name in this case. Is there a way to make the two or more same instances distinct?

Thank you for your reply,
best regards


Andreas

Might you be able to post an example of this problem? I'm pretty sure I don't understand the question yet.
