Why would you want to do that?
i too have the same problem. i have to save part or assembly with drawing number and name of the component as per standard. i could not create new part with more than 31 characters. can this problem be soved?
The best way to solve this problem is to change your procedures and not use ridiculously long file names. I suggest using the part number only. Intralink cannot handle very long filenames either. This is compounded by Intralink adding the path and workspace name, and long names will not be retrievable on assembly. If you ever use Intralink you will have to rename all your files.
You cannot. It is hard coded into the Pro E executable.
