Summary: The current process and marking a window as demoed and then placing a new one is prone to user error and graphic glitches. A new option in addition to Demo would demo the old window and replace it with a new window in the same opening which would be locked to the existing opening dimensions instead of a new wall.

Description: When working on a remodeling job, addition, renovation, preservation, etc., a common procedure is to replace the existing doors, windows, etc, with new ones. In many cases the host wall doesn't change at all. This schedule category could be applied to any object in Revit which can currently be demoed (doors and windows just being the most obvious usage scenario) and a replacement could be specified/ linked back to the original. Schedules would also include the new phasing so that you could easily create schedules of existing, new, and replacement components.
