Hello,



I have created a reusable part that allows me to choose different aluminium extruded profiles and length. So far everything works fine except the part name does not update when using the "Edit Reusable Component" if I wanted to change profile type or length. The attributes associated with the "edited" reusable part update successfully, but the part name stays the same. I am looking for an automated way of accomplishing this.

I have set my Customer Defaults -> Gateway -> Reuse Library -> Reusable Component -> Custom Part naming Rules to <TEMPLATE_NAME> <ATTR:TYPE_ATTRIBUTE> <ATTR:LENGTH_ATTRIBUTE>
Also, in the reusable part KRX file I have added a line <RenameOption>Rename</RenameOption> to default it to "Clone" when using drag&drop from the library. Any ideas?
