Description
- Is it possible to code in Toolkit the replacement of an assembly component by a new copy or by an unrelated component
- Is it possible to programmatically replace an assembly component with a copy or a unrelated component
- Is it possible to programmatically interchange an assembly component which is not Interchange or Family Table type
- Is there a Toolkit equivalent API to apply Assembly > Operations > Replace By > New Copy or Unrelated Component
- Is it possible to get the functionality similar to the UI command Component > Replace > By Copy using Toolkit?
- Is there a Toolkit equivalent for the interactive command Model -> Operations -> Replace -> By [New] Copy in assembly mode?
- Renaming the component (component is a family table instance) and then saving the assembly just renames the instance, whereas the copy should be a standalone part
- Is it possible to code in Toolkit the replacement of an assembly component other than interchange(ProAssemblyAutointerchange) in Creo Parametric?
