The Update and Full Update commands are available when you right-click a drawing view in the Drawings View Explorer.

Full Update performs a full update of all geometry in the view. It does not consider whether the model objects associated with the geometry has changed.

Update performs a smart update of the view or a set of selected views from the same sheet. If a set of criteria is met, then an incremental update is performed only for the geometry of added, modified, and deleted objects. If the criteria are not met, then a full update — the equivalent of Full Update — is performed.

All of the following criteria must be met for Update to trigger an incremental update:

  • The view has had at least one full update previously performed.

  • The only view properties that have changed are name and description.See View Tab (Drawing View Properties Dialog).

  • The numbers of added, modified, or deleted objects are less than set quantities.

  • The software allows incremental updates for the selected view type.

Any one of the following criteria cause Update to trigger a full update:

  • An incremental update is usually faster than a full update, but still results in completely up-to-date geometry for the view.

  • The View Log command displays a log of the results from the last update performed on the view with the Update or Full Update commands.
