Drawing regeneration

Sometimes, when you are working with a document after the command is finished, some visual elements stay on the drawing; for example, markers of characteristic points. To delete such visual elements, use forced regeneration (specified manually) or redrawing of a drawing.
Two commands in nanoCAD are used for it: Regen and Redraw (View menu).
Redrawing a drawing is faster than regeneration because all the drawing objects’ coordinates are recalculated (converting values with floating points from the drawing database to integer display coordinates) during regeneration.

Regeneration

Menu: View – Regen
Status bar:
Command line: RE, REA, REGEN, REGENALL

The Regen command is used for a forced update of a current drawing.
Command performs following actions:

  • Recomputes the locations and visibility for all objects
  • Recalculates tables
  • Updates automatically calculated attribute values.

Redrawing

Menu: View – Redraw
Command line: Redraw

The Redraw command is used for a forced update of a display.
