Topic: How to update/refresh the drawing after element was edited

Hello Al

I have a maybe silly question:
If I have an element and I wanna edit it in the editor, e.g. change the size, I can do that,
save the element close the editor, but nothing happens.
The element on the folio keeps the same size.

What must be done to update the drawing? I think reopen the project can do that, but
I don`t wanna always close and reopen the file.

Thanks for help.

Regards

Chris

Hello Chris,

drag abd drop your element modified and saved before close QET.

Hi Laurent

Yes, this I could see, but if I wanna modify the element somewhen later during the design phase, and I have
for example some texts attached to the element, I have to make all the texts from scratch?
It`s as if I would place a complete new element.
Delete the old one, insert a new one, and make all things new?

Hello once again

This all doesn`t work as expected.
Today I insert a switch. Is too small. OK, modify the component. Done.
Delete old one, insert new one, but I don`t get a message if I wanna replace the already insert
parts? I just can insert a new one.
And I have a Auto-numbering. So each time I insert a part the index is incremented.
Means, if I change 5 times the size, at the end I have only one part with index 5.

Thanks for help how I can manage this correctly.

Chris
