        The latest is available on Extension Warehouse at the moment. I'm currently too overloaded to update my plugins on SCF. Probably won't happen until February.

              I'm not able to reproduce this. When I select a component in SU2015 and pick another component it replaces the selected instances.
              Do you perhaps have a video capture?

                Thomthom, your plugin looks quite useful, so i tried to add a toolbar button because digging in menus isnt my thing.
                i wanted to ask you some help embedding that button in the right place…with all the loaders of the last time, its confusing to get where to insert other code. (id prefer not, but…its the magic toolbar button… and solely that)

                anyway, when i try to add a toolbar button code block after the extension code block in tt_replacer, i get:

                Error Loading File tt_replacer.rb
                wrong number of arguments (2 for 1)

                heres the code:

                #=begin     
                    cmd = UI;;Command.new( PLUGIN_NAME, loader )
                #    cmd.small_icon =  "Images/icon_16.png"
                    cmd.tooltip = "Component Replacer"
                    tb= UI.toolbar "ThomThom"
                    tb.add_item(cmd)
                #=end

                  > #    cmd.small_icon =  "Images/icon_16.png"
                  >     cmd.tooltip = "Component Replacer"
                  >     tb= UI.toolbar "ThomThom"
                  >     tb.add_item(cmd)
                  > #=end
                  

                  I think it should be

                  #=begin     
                      cmd = UI;;Command.new( PLUGIN_NAME ) { loader }
                  #    cmd.small_icon =  "Images/icon_16.png"
                      cmd.tooltip = "Component Replacer"
                      tb= UI.toolbar "ThomThom"
                      tb.add_item(cmd)
                  #=end
                  

                  Nothing is worthless, it can always be used as a bad example.

                        HI ThomThom

                        Does Component replacer work with 2021? It appears to have stopped working.

                        I select the components to replace, invoke the tool and then it prompts me to select the component to replace with but nothing happens.

                          It also doesn't work for me in 2021. I loved this extension 😞
