Enhancements for 2022.3 focused on translators and Inventor infrastructure.
AnyCAD for Inventor
Reference Future (newer) Versions of Inventor Part and Assembly Files
You can now reference an Inventor 2023 part or assembly file in Inventor 2022.
You must have Inventor 2022.3 installed to support opening 2023 part and assembly files. Download Inventor 2022.3 via the Autodesk desktop app or from https://manage.autodesk.com.
Use the Open, Place, or Derive command to create a reference to a newer version of an Inventor part or assembly file.
Migration: If you open and save the file in a newer version of Inventor (or use Task Scheduler to migrate files with references to future versions) the newer version references are migrated to standard Inventor Place and Derive relationships.
For more information, see About AnyCAD for Inventor.
