Updating Workarea Using Design Manager

You can update your entire workarea with the latest design data checked in by other users.

To update your workarea with the latest design changes, follow these steps:

1. Choose Design Manager – Update Workarea.
   The Update Workarea form appears.
   
   
2. In the Update Options group box, select the Update From check box and type the name of a configuration in the field to update your workarea relative to the specified design management configuration.
   For information about the types of configurations you can specify, see the documentation for your design management system.
3. In the Update Options group box, select the Use Options check box and type any update options specific to your particular design management system you want to use.
4. Click OK.

The software updates all the files in your workarea.

The length of time required to update your workarea depends on the number of cellviews you are updating. Because an update could take a long time, you should choose an appropriate time to run the procedure.

When checking in a library for the first time, add the library to the project.lib file (or cds.lib) before sharing the data.
