Getting the Latest Version of a Drawing

Product Documentation
Intermediate

You can obtain a read-only copy of the latest version of any project drawing.

Use the Get Latest Version command to update your copy of a source drawing for a project object, a drawing that contains a reference to shared project objects, or any other project drawing.

You can tell whether your local copy of a drawing is the latest version available in Vault by the icon displayed next to it in the Prospector tree. For more information, see Project Item State Icons.

The Get Latest Version command is displayed in the context menu of a Prospector tree item only when the local copy of the file is out of date or does not exist. The command is not available for an open drawing.

When applicable, the Get Latest Version command is available at every level within the Projects collection on the Prospector tab. If you select the command at a level that contains folders beneath it, you can choose which folders you want to update.

To get the latest version of a drawing

  1. In Toolspace, on the Prospector tab, under the Projects collection, right-click the drawing, collection, or folder you want to update.
  2. Click Get Latest Version.
  3. In the Get Latest Version dialog box, select Include File Dependencies to display any dependent files in the Project Files list.
  4. Clear the check boxes next to files and folders that you do not want updated.
  5. Click OK.
