drawing.
NOTE If your Revit project has been updated, remember to export a new DWG
file that can be reloaded.
1 On the Files panel of the File link Manager, click the file name in the
Linked Files list and click Reload.
Linked files that have been changed are prefaced with the
symbol.
TIP Turn on the Show Reload Options switch if you want to make changes
to the settings used to link the drawing. Otherwise, the reload process will
use the same settings you originally used when creating the link.
2 If Show Reload Options is turned on, the
File Link Settings dialog on
page 6793 is displayed where you can change your settings in the Basic
and Advanced panels.
NOTE You cannot change the sorting or layer options when reloading a
drawing.
3 Click OK to reload the file.
Interface
The File Link Manager dialog contains three panels for listing linked files:
■
Attach on page 6789
■ Files on page 6790
■ Presets on page 6792
These panels let you attach files, update attachments and settings, and change
presets used by File Link. The terminology is similar to the terminology for
managing AutoCAD external references, or
xrefs on page 7977 .
NOTE An xref is an AutoCAD external reference. This is different from a 3ds Max
Xref on page 7978 , which is an externally referenced file that can be a 3ds Max
object or scene.
