1.5.8.2.2. Replace component via dimensions

As soon as a dimension object is visible and selectable in an assembly, a replace command can be executed via the context menu, which replaces the component to which this dimension object belongs.

Prerequisites:

The procedure described only works perfectly from NX2312 onwards.
In ifugnx.cfg > block "CreationOptions(is3d):include(CreationOptions)", the key "CreateDimensions" must be set to the value 1 (default=0).
The "MN_replace3d_Environment" in ifacecommon.cfg must contain "context" (which is the case by default).
The procedure described only works in one assembly group.

Procedure:

Select the menu item MBD Query.
In the list fields under Query, select "Rule Based Query" and "Find all PMI".
-> The dimensions are now displayed.
Select a dimensioning point and open the context menu.
Click on the Replace menu item.
-> Various dialog boxes are opened one after the other.
