Hi,
I've made some "datagroup - objects" ( beams and columns) but the are placed as an object ( user defined catalog types)the beams and columns are defined in a cel-library,
now I have updated the cells: (added some more details)
how to update the placed user defined catalog items to show the updated cell,
If I place a new user defined type, the new cell is used, but I do not want to delete and replace all the placed datagroup objects already in the file,I want to update all the existing objects - to the new cell definitions.

Have you tried Replace Cell or Modify User Data tool?

Dominic,
"objects" placed by the place object tool are no cells (anymore), so the "replace cell" command does NOT work for this.
"modify properties" can be used, but only if an other item is selected and reset, otherwise "no change" does not update the cells, maybe an update button can be added....
Hi Rik,
It sounds like you may be experiencing something similar to the tail end of this thread, just with library cells instead of PAZ cells:

indeed, this is the question
If so... as mentioned in that thread, swapping to a different component and then back seems to be the simplest way to update to the revised cell.
