About the Regeneration Manager
You can use the Regeneration Manager to view the regeneration status of items, set regeneration preferences, and skip features during regeneration. It contains the following elements:
• Preferences—Sets Failure Handling to Resolve Mode or No Resolve Mode. When Create Backup Models is selected and you click Regenerate, first a backup model is created, and then the model is regenerated. The backup model is discarded when the regeneration is completed successfully.
• Search—Searches the Regeneration List and highlights the results.
• Tree Filters—Displays the Checked items, the Unchecked items, or both in the Regeneration List.
• Options—Sets some standard options for a Model Tree. Save Tree saves the Regeneration List as a text file.
• Regeneration List—Shows the items in the Model Tree that need regeneration. Each node in the tree has a check box. When the check box is selected, the item is included in a regeneration operation. When the check box is cleared, the item is skipped during a regeneration operation.
• Status—Shows the regeneration status for each feature.
• Description—Explains the reason for the regeneration of the feature.
• Save Preferences—Saves changes to the preferences and closes the dialog box.
• Regenerate—Regenerates the model, excluding items in the Regeneration List whose check boxes are cleared. Saves the changes to the preferences and closes the dialog box.
• Cancel—Quits the dialog box without regenerating or saving the changes.
You can use the shortcut menu to view the feature information or the references of an item.
