mightyBrowser supports Autodesk® Inventor® users to have descriptive nodes in the Inventor browser.

Trial

The add-In for Autodesk® Inventor® mightyBrowser provides a function to update the description of components of the Inventor browser based on configured iProperties.

For drawing(IDW and Inventor DWG), presentation (IPN), assembly (IAM) and part documents (IPT), the top node (display name) in the browser will be updated after executing the function.

For assembly documents (IAM) additionally the component names will be updated according to the iProperty definition that is defined in the config file.

  • The default setting for the browser node is the combination of the iProperty 'Title' and 'Part Number'
  • By default the browser nodes are not updated when the file is opened or saved.
  • By default the browser nodes of Content Center Parts and Functional Documents - like Frame Generator components, Design Accelerator components, Tube and Pipe components and Cable and Harness components - are not updated.
  • For iPart factories the update of the browser name is ignored!

  • If switch 'UpdateViews' is set to true the label of the VIEW is modified. If you insert a section on the sheet, the default for the text of the section is the label of the VIEW. Therefore instead of just the expected text 'A' or 'B' a complete browser node text is displayed.
  • If the switch UpdateFunctionalDocuments is set to 'true' in the config file, some of the browser names of Frame Generator parts may not be updated.
  • The switch UpdateContentCenterFiles is not evaluated. Content Center Files are updated if attribute UpdateLibraries is set to 'true'.
  • Browser name of an IPN as a component in a VIEW of a drawing cannot be updated.
