Import/Replace with Raw IMPORT Command Syntax

"IMPORT OPTION"
Command syntax to configure Replace options.

IMP OPTION | GEOMETRY | |ON|
Compares the geometries of the IFC entities identified for replacement.

IMP OPTION | POSITION | |ON|
Compares the positions of the IFC entities identified for replacement.

IMP OPTION | PROPERTY | |ON|
Compares the properties of the IFC entities identified for replacement.

IMP OPTION | RESET|
Resets the Import option.

IMP OPTION | REPLACE| |OFF|

Turns off the Replace behavior. The IFC import is treated as a fresh import and no replace operations are performed.
