Hello,

 

Has the replace component feature been moved, removed, or is it not available when using a personal license?

 

I have 10 instances of a socket cap screw (imported from mcmaster) in an assembly.

I already have relationships set up, animations, views, drawings, the works.

Now, I'd like to swap them out with a different length version of the same screw.

 

I did some searching and found instructions for a "replace component" feature but I'm not finding that option when right clicking in the design or the browser.

To use the Replace function the component must be an External component saved in your Cloud database.
