halfcoupler Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Maybe I'm missing something, but afaik there is no way to select several 2D or 3D objects (rectangles, cubes, Speres, Extrudes etc.) and replace each of them directly with a symbol. Maybe anyone here has a workaround ? Maybe that's something for the whishlist ? Quote Link to comment
Popular Post markdd Posted October 24, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 24, 2018 The easiest way is the Modify-convert-replace with symbol command hope that’s what you mean 5 Quote Link to comment

Mike Wright Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 @markddCan't believe I didn't know about this part of the convert tool! Quote Link to comment
halfcoupler Posted October 24, 2018 Author Share Posted October 24, 2018 Yes, one of those "hidden treasures" 🤩 whats more, this way of replacement can be used the same way as the replace button in the OIP , replacing symbols as well, AND what I was always looking for, it can have a shortcut !!! I'm not quite shure, but its also seems that browsing the symbols is a little quicker than the replace button. Quote Link to comment
markdd Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 What’s different about the menu command, is that it will give you the option to either leave records with objects or replace them with the symbol record you are replacing the object with. There is definitely a difference. It’s a really useful command. Quote Link to comment
