Summary


Details

In Solid Edge, the filename is not displayed correctly in the tab and the title bar. This issue can occur after renaming a file, where the attribute within the file storage does not update to reflect the new filename.

Solution

Follow these steps to correct the filename displayed in the tab and title bar:

  1. Open the file in Solid Edge.
    1. In the toolbars, select View -> New Window.
      1. The new window tab will display the correct filename.
        1. Close the incorrectly named tab.
          1. Save the correctly named tab.
            1. Close the file.
              1. Reopen the file.

                The tab will now display the correct filename. This solution forces Solid Edge to rewrite the attribute value to the correct filename, resolving the issue. This issue can occur sporadically and does not have a consistent identifiable root cause.
