4.5.17. Update view (SuCri4PlantOrthoDrawArea)

Overview
Update view brings a single viewport up to date, while all others remain unchanged. This allows views to be designed specifically differently from the rest of the drawing.
Where do I find the function?

How it works in detail
You select the viewport and define how to handle existing dimensions and annotations. Only this one viewport is updated.
This allows, for example, creating a view that only shows part of the assembly: first remove parts in the model with SuCri4DetachXref, then update this one viewport. Afterwards you reattach the parts in the model so that the assembly is complete. The individually updated viewport stays as it is.
Tips and best practices
- Restore the assembly afterwards: Otherwise the parts are missing in the bill of materials and all other views.
- All at once: If all views are to be brought up to date,
SuCri4PlantOrthoUpdateAllViewis the right command.
