Hi,

I am trying to set the name of a SketchBlockInstance created from aSketchBlockDefinition that is loaded from a block file usingMakeSketchBlockFromFile.

When I set the name it also changes the name of the blockdefinition and all the previous instances created from thedefinition.

Here is an example:
swBlockDef = swSketchMgr.MakeSketchBlockFromFile(newPosition,BLOCK_PATH, True, 1, 0)
vBlockInst = swBlockDef.GetInstances
swBlockInst = vBlockInst(swBlockDef.GetInstanceCount - 1)
swBlockInst.Name = INSTANCE_NAME

Is there any way to change the name of an instance with outchanging the definition name and other instances created from thatdefinition?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
