Summary


Details

In Electrical Routing, the command for "Refresh Stock Definitions" is not available. How can a refresh stock definitions be performed on stock in the Electrical Routing application?

Solution

This is a known omission in the Electrical Routing Application. Existing enhancement request ER 10278197 is for this command to be made available.

Until this is implemented, there are 2 possible workarounds.

1 - Use a modified ug_route_elec.men file (attached) which includes this button:

ug_route_elec.men (33.9 KB)


If this file is placed in …\ROUTING\application\ it is possible to access Refresh Stock Definitions in Electrical Routing. BUT! this will only work if you start the Mechanical Routing application FIRST and then start Electrical Routing. Starting Electrical routing directly will give an error registering the command.


2 - Add the electrical routing library entries to the mechanical routing library and refresh the stock definitions whilst in Mechanical routing
