Replace assembly components easily with content from the clipboard. Just click the right mouse button and fill the clipboard with the copy command in any application like:

• Autodesk® Inventor®
• Windows-Explorer
• any other file explorer
• Notepad, Text editor (Copy a valid path as text into your clipboard)

 

Replacing: When there is some valid content in the clipboard select the component in the assembly and execute smartReplace.

• One occurrence is selected: The selected occurrence will be replaced with content from the clipboard. If there are several of these occurrences smartReplace asks if you want to replace only the selected one or all of these occurrences. There is graphical feedback.
• Several occurrences are selected: All selected occurrences will be replaced independently if there exists more of them in the assembly.

 

With smartReplace you avoid the annoying navigation in the explorer window. 

Speed up replacing a lot – work more efficiently.
