Automatically Updated Part Number to Match Part Name
We have been using Onshape at my company for many years now but are only now looking to integrate release management into our workflows. As such, we have developed our own part and assembly naming convention that helps us to manage our designs. Now that we are looking to use release management, it would be very useful (and time efficient) if there was a FeatureScript or an alternative method for automatically populating the part number for each part/assembly/drawing/variable studio with the part name that has already been assigned so that the user does not need to manually copy and paste into the properties for each part/assembly etc.
