Are you asking from an end user point of view, or using the API?

 

For the end user question, please also check in the structural forum.

 

For the API aspect, please find out whether it is possible manually through the UI first. The API almost never supports functionality that is not available manually through the UI.

Thank you for answer. I would like to do it through C#. I want for example extend rebar to edge with cover and I would like to do it with the help of API. Normally I have to create new rebar and delete the old one.

Okey-doke. As said, the procedure to achieve that via the API will normally more or less match the optimal workflow and best practices used manually through the end user interface. So, how do you achieve the same in the UI? Do you delete and recreate there as well? If so, then that approach is presumably the  best choice in the API also.
