Thanks
You can upload the model with the same name and it will replace the one
in the 3d Warehouse.

Well, Henry, I did it before and it did not work - for ME at least. So
I had to erase my old model and then replace it with the new one.
But who know what works how - maybe just some settings...

I've done as I described several times. I even checked that it worked
before I posted my suggestion. As you say, who knows?

To check if your model has a mid number, use this code in the Ruby
Console:
Sketchup.active_model.get_attribute('3DWarehouse', 'ModelID')
You can also set the mid if you want a model to overwrite a currently
uploaded model. First view the details page of the model you want to
replace. Copy the mid number from your web browser. (Don't use the
SketchUp builtin browser.) Then use the followinf code snippet to set
the model id number. Replace ###### with the actual ID.
Sketchup.active_model.set_attribute('3DWarehouse', 'ModelID',
"#######")
Be sure to save the model after setting the model ID (or after
uploading to the 3DW.) If you don't save the model, the mid number is
lost.
I'll try this for I always had a problem that you cannot "refresh" your
model in the 3DWH (in a "normal" way) so once I make some changes I
need to upload it again but it involves problems that in these threads
for instance, the posted links become obsolate and some (probably) 404
errors occur.
Actually, I also lack a possibility here in these forums that you
cannot go back and edit your message either for some spelling
(mistyping) mistakes or you change your mind or whatever else reason.
But I guess that's life and we have to learn to live with this
feature...

I tried and it DID work - as usually!
Great! Thanks for sharing this trick!
