Remove XRef Record Deletes the highlighted XRef record(s) after you
confirm the action. All entities associated with the highlighted record(s) are
removed from the scene.
NOTE Once you have removed an XRef record, you cannot undo this action.
Combine XRef Records Click to combine the contents of more than
one XRef record from the same source file into one record. This is useful when
you want to clean up the organization of your XRef records. Rather than
having multiple records of the same file, you can group all of the objects,
controllers, and materials from that file under the same record. This button
is available only when you highlight two records that refer to the same file
name and path; both records must have identical settings. XRef records must
refer to the same file with the same XRef entities. Combine XRef Records only
allows you to consolidate all of the entities of one file into one XRef record
entry. It does not allow you to combine the contents of different files, even
if the files have the same name.
NOTE Nested externally referenced records cannot be combined.
Update Refreshes the contents of the selected XRef record. If the
objects, controllers, materials, or manipulators referenced have changed in
the source scene, you will see these changes in your master scene.
NOTE The changes must be saved in the source file before you see them in the
master file. If you remove externally referenced entities from the master file using
the Delete XRef Entity button, these entities will not be externally referenced when
you update the XRef record, even though they continue to exist in the source
scene.
NOTE Reloading XRef items works correctly even when an object in the source
scene has been renamed, or deleted and then re-created with the exact same
name, including character case. However, if the source scene contains several
nodes with the same name, an XRef item corresponding to a node whose name
is not unique in the source scene might not necessarily resolve as you expect
during the update process. For best results, maintain unique names for all nodes
in the source scene.
