I was wondering if there is a method where the filename of a part can be linked into the part number property.
I would like to be able to have my part numbers linked to my model file names so that if i create a new part using a save as function the part number of the part will update as well.
I have the ironcad mechanical addon which has many useful tools but couldnt find something like this.
Thanks

Hi
attached is a screen shot of what i would like to do...
I currently utilize this type of application in my 2D Autocadd drawings where the file name populates the drawing title block. That way i always know that my filenames and drawing names match.
I would like to utilize that functionality in ironcad scenes. I have made errors in the past by "forgetting" to open a scene to change the part number after renaming or doing a saveas.
