Hi, I brought this up at AU 2022 ask the inventor developer session, and it was suggested to post this as an Idea. What would be nice is a way to replace 1 style with another in a drawing, let me expand on that. 1. A user makes a drawing with 10+ sheets. Drawing has both styles A_Correct and B_Wrong as styles that can be used. 2. User used B_Wrong when creating all views, annotation, dimensions etc. 3. Currently there is no way to tell inventor, replace all entities that use B_Wrong style with A_correct style. 4. There is kind of a workaround where you rename A_Correct as something else say C_Correct. then Rename B_Wrong as A_Correct and update the local style to match the published global style. however this is dangerous because we still might Need B_wrong in the drawing, so once you rename back to the correct names, if another user updates the local again, all the annotations etc will revert to the incorrect definitions. Currently there is the ability in a drawing sheet to "Shift+RightClick" and select all dimensions. once you've done this you can then change the style for dimensions to the correct style. a possible solution would be a similar ability for a sheet and/or entire drawing. where you select "All Entities of Specific type" and then select the correct drawing style. Another solution would command where you can just blanket say replace all B_Wrong with A_Correct.
