Note:
  • The panel drawings and the part drawings of the sub model are displayed in the building's document browser. If the panel drawings have changed and they have been updated during the up-to-dateness check, the drawings still need to be updated in the building document browser. The subbuilding ID is marked with an asterisk in the building document browser. Select the ID of the building, right-click and select Open Documents from the menu.

  • Part drawings are updated in connection with the up-to-dateness check when rule-based part numbering is used. If default numbering is used, and the part drawings are out of date, the sub model must be opened and the part drawings updated separately. See Part Numbering.
