Summary: Expand name choices for "Rename Browser Nodes."
Description: Best practice has the file name be the part number. Parts and assemblies are then uniquely defined (both in part list and Windows Explorer spaces). This prevents situations where different parts have the same file name (such as "bracket" for example).
Current Inventor browser toggles only between file name and part number via Rename Browser Nodes. Using best practice previously defined means that only part numbers can be displayed in the browser. Part numbers in the browser are not as meaningful to the designer as the property "Title" for example.
The proposed solution is to add a third choice of "Title" when invoking "Rename Browser Nodes."
