  Hello there,
  Is there any way to update the changes made in a Inventor .ipt file after exporting it into DesighModeler or SpaceClaim?
  What I'm trying to do is to make share topology between the different solids, and have the possibility of making changes in the inventor file without having to to all the processes of setting up the meshing, etc, again.
  Regards,
  
  Jorge.

  Hello ,
  Please check bidirectionaly connectivity between DM and Inventor. For that you will need plugin license.

    Thank you Keyur,
    
    I can do everything that the video you suggest does, what I cannot do is open the imported geometry with DesighModeler or SpaceClame in order to do shared topology operations, and then make changes at the original inventor file and reflect those changes in ansys, it seems that once you open the imported geometry with either DesighModeler or SpaceClame the associativity is loss.
