What's New for Inventor 2025.3 (What's New in 2025.3)

AnyCAD for Inventor

Reference Future (newer) Versions of Inventor Part and Assembly Files

You can now reference an Inventor 2026 part or assembly file in Inventor 2025.

You must have Inventor 2025.3 installed to support opening 2026 part and assembly files. Download Inventor 2025.3 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.
