Then go to the next newest version and rename it to the same name.

Use the name you would like for the combined file. Start with the oldest version and rename it. Say for instance that in your Workbench project, you have several part files with suffixes that denote version. This is useful if you use a renaming convention locally to keep track of versions, but you would like Workbench to show only the latest version of the file and contain the older versions in the version history. If you have two files with two different names, you can combine them into one file on Workbench. Notice the assembly file shows a pending change since the references to the parts have been updated from the rename and move actions. When you are ready you can go into Workbench to view the pending changes.Ĭlick to view the pending changes and select the changes you want to upload. Move the file or rename the file in the prompt which appears after selecting the option you want.Īfter you have done one or more of these actions the assembly file is now updated with the correct references to the renamed or moved part files. Select rename or move from the SolidWorks context menu. Right click on a part of a SolidWorks part file and open the SolidWork context menu.
