I thought this thread was about the replace option, not
motorcycle racing.
While I like motorcycle racing (been to Road Atlanta &
Daytona several times), I clicked here to see answers about
the REPLACE OPTION.
Sticking to the original post, I believe you refer to
replacing components in an assembly without deleting it.
When you delete the component in the assembly, there
could
be many more components which reference the geometry of
the component you wish to replace. The replace command is
useful when you wish to replace a part that belongs to a
family table. e.g M8x 10 bolt replaced by M8 x 12 bolt or
M10 x 12 bolt.
A replace command ensures that the "REFERENCES are
Associated" with the replace, thus preventing a collapse.
Trust I have clarified. Edited by: SRINIVASANIYER1
