Inventor - iPart factory drawing

By Florentina Stirbu

Recently I had a support request regarding iPart drawings – title block information is populated with the Part number of the active member, but the drawing is meant to be a standard iPart drawing.

iPart members will have different part numbers. The factory part doesn't have a part number of its own as it will never exist in an assembly as a factory and can only have a member placed. The title block for iPart drawings can be edited to use a different property (i.e. Title) that will have the same value across all members. 
In the example below, I'm using the TITLE to have the 055 value (iPart factory) as members have the part numbers 055A, 055B, 055C.

When a drawing view is placed, it will show a specific factory member (which can be changed in the Model tab of the drawing view edit dialog box).
