What this tool does
Go To Folder opens Windows File Explorer in the folder where the active Inventor document is stored. Saves a lot of clicking through "Recent files" or navigating to the right network folder yourself.
How to use it
- Open the document whose folder you want to go to.
- Click Go To Folder in the Folder panel.
- File Explorer opens at the right location with the file already selected.
Settings
No separate settings
Go To Folder uses the file location of the active document, no configuration needed.
