Hi. Ive finished making a model in Stud.io, but one of the parts is ridiculously
expensive. I have accidentally taken the wrong part. Is there an easy way to
just replace all those parts with a similar (and less expensive) part or must
I pick apart the model and replace all manually?

Use Select by Type and Color, it'll select them all to replace.

Click Replace top-left, and pick the part to replace with, it'll replace
them all.

Note: I didn't check if it works for parts in submodels, you may either break
all submodels, or repeat the operation for all sub models.

Another solution would be to save as LDR file, edit this file manually using
Notepad (CTRL+H) to replace, save the file, import it in studio...
