I have a complex 3D carved model, well, complex for me anyway. Customer made a small change to planar surface.
What is the best procedure to swap the new model in.
Do I open my file, that is already coded, delete the model and use merge with new model. Then reselect all geometry and compute all?

Thank you. I must be getting a handle on this

What is the difference between copy/paste, boolean add and merge? I ran into probs a couple days ago.
Copy and paste is creating duplicates of objects...
Boolean operations are basically several lower level commands bundled into a single command, as they were often used.
Such as, calculating intersection values, trimming and discarding the desired unwanted pieces and stiching the pieces back to a solid again. Booleans are usually meant for solid ooerations.
A boolean "merge" commamd should give you a result of ALL the boolean calculations. Boolean add, subtract and isect (intersection), but left as all seperate solid pieces, with no discarding...
