With the Replace command, we can use a table to replace existing primary supports in our active DWG with other primary supports in our active pipe class.

Firstly, we need to customise the mapping table in the settings. To do this, we click on Load settings in the interface and open the settings file in Explorer.

The ReplaceSupport tab takes us to the table that defines the replacement. The family description is used for this.

In our example, we would like to replace the clips with pipe shoes. To do this, we enter the family description of the existing clips on the left-hand side. On the right-hand side, we enter the family description of the bracket that we would like to use instead.

Once we have executed the Replace command, the clips are replaced with our new supports.
