1. Invoke the Replace Faces command.
   
   
2. Select the face to be replaced for the Faces selector. You can make use of Propagation Limits, if required.
   
   
   
   
3. Select the surface that will replace the previously selected face for the Target selector.
   
   
   
   
4. Apply the command to make the face replacement. Note that the face is transposed upwards to make the replacement feasible.
