Introduction

The Refresh command is probably the most important command in Model Viewer. This command will display all models in Model Viewer. The Refresh command is very much associated with the Toggle Display command, because it is the Toggle Display command that allows users to manage the display of models in Model Viewer.

The Refresh command is run on the following instances:

1. When Model Viewer is first opened
2. When Auto Update  is turned on and a change is made to the vertical design of a road or string
3. When Refresh is run from the Home Tab on the ribbon
4. When the user holds down 'CTRL+R' on the keyboard

When Refresh is run, the following will be updated:

1. Display of surfaces (as controlled in the Toggle Display form)
2. Display of labels (including user labels, road name labels, and design data labels)
3. Display of objects. Object elevations will be updated if they are referencing a surface.
