To Update a Section or Elevation View

If you modify a construct referenced in a view drawing with section or elevation marks, you can update the section or elevation view drawings to automatically reflect the changes to the construct.

  1. On the Quick Access Toolbar, click Project Navigator .
  2. On the Views tab of Project Navigator, open the drawing that contains the section or elevation view. You do not need to open the drawing that contains the section or elevation marks.
  3. Click directly on the drawing geometry in the section or elevation view.
  4. Click 2D Section/Elevation tab Modify panel Regenerate .
  5. In the Generate Section/Elevation dialog box, click OK to regenerate the section or elevation.

If you have already placed the section or elevation view on a sheet, the section or elevation view will update automatically the next time you open the sheet.
