Replace or update library parts
Use the replace commands to quickly replace library parts with different parts. You can replace a single instance of a part or you can replace every instance of a part. For example, if you have six screws of type A, and you need to replace them with type B, you can replace all the screws in a single step.
If you update a part in the database with a new version, you can update library parts. Use update in this situation instead of replace.
