Isometric listing in Project Manager

When I re-create existing isometrics following a change or modification, any additional sheets created are not shown in the Project Manager. Is there a way of refreshing this list?

I just did some testing in Plant 3D 2012 and the Isometric drawing list in Project Manager collapeses down each time it generates a new set of drawings and when I branch it out the new drawings are listed. 

 

I'm running product version F.51.0.0

 

There are two buttons at the top of the Isometrics section of Project Manager that forces an update, it's the second and third buttons over from the right labeled, "Group by Line Number" or "Group by Drawing"

 

Thank you,

Thanks for checking this out, we to are on product version F.51.0.0, but I had an existing 2 sheet piping isometric which was modified in Plant 3D when the piping isometric was re-run it created 3 sheets but only the original 2 sheets displayed in the listing. This has happened on other piping isometrics too.

I did some testing here and was unable to get the same results. It sounds like Project Manager isn't refeshing like it's supposed to on your installation. 

 

When you generate an Iso, keep an eye on the Project Manager tree. It should collapse down when the "Isometric Creation Complete" notification shows up down in the notification tray. Then you have to branch out the folder and you should see the new drawings on the list.

 

Also, take a look at the date stamp on "Iso.dcf" and "IsoPart.xml" out in the root of your project folder. Both of those files should update as soon as the Iso generation is complete.

 

 

Thank you,

Jason,

 

To fix the problem I removed the drawings from the listing and deleted the files, when I re-created the isometrics they were all listed correctly.
