Hi,

I found on this forum the following macro from ​ ​and I modified it with my custom properties.

My problem is that, when I have a sub-assembly I am not able to change the component name of the sub-assembly.

As you can see in the following image all the parts, also the sub-assembliy parts, have been renamed (code-revision-description) but the sub-assembly remains with the original file name (code).

Is there a way to modify the macro?

Thanks in advance.
