Updating Connected Parts

If you move a window, door or electrical symbol from one wall panel to another, the change is not updated in the floor plan drawing, framing model or wall panel drawing automatically. To update the change, connect the opening or the electrical symbol to the new panel, regenerate the parts and create or update the panel drawing.

Connect the opening or the electrical symbol to the wall panel as follows:

1. Select Wall Panels > Update Connected Parts.
2. Do one of the following:
   • Select an individual wall panel.
   • Press and hold the Ctrl key or use area selection to select several wall panels.
3. Select Confirm.

Then, regenerate the panel parts and update the panel drawing. The program prompts you to update the panel drawing when you open the drawing.

Note

• Also regenerate the parts of the panel you moved the opening or electrical symbol from and update the panel drawing.
• Alternatively, you can select the function from the context-sensitive menu:
  1. Select one or more panels.
  2. Right-click to open the context-sensitive menu.
  3. Select Update Connected Parts.
