A document that needs to be refreshed is marked with a red diagonal.

RBCT_REFRESHALLDOC

Available for a position selected in the position tree; the command enables refreshing all the documents belonging to a selected position.

The command is useful when it is necessary to have another drawing (of the same part) to edit it independently or two drawings of different scales.
