I'm using ProStructures Connect Edition Update 4 V10.04.00.47.
I'm trying to replace a solid.
I cannot merge the new solid from a reference file that I want to replace with as it gives me a message "REFERENCE MERGE command is blocked in Prostructures".
How can I get this new solid and replace it in my model?
Either you can use the save as command and merge References, or you can use Import / DGN, for ProSteel its looked for now as it could cause inconsistencies in numbering. In future it will be possible. You can also ccopy out of the reference.

Johannes thanks for info.
I tried doing a save as and merging references as you indicated.
and the model is still showing as it's a reference. It did not merge.
When I tried using import, common file types, *.dgn I selected my other dgn however the option box is greyed out. I selected open and nothing happens in file. No prompts, nothing.
Then I tried to attach model as reference, used the copy tool to copy it out. Then I was able to replace the solid.
So far so good with this method.
Thanks for you assistance, much appreciated!
