Update the Viewer#

The Viewer uses a SQLite database for the rendering of the model, derived from the SOFiSTiK CDB database.

The Viewer includes an automatic notification and update mechanism. When changes occur in the SOFiSTiK CDB database, the Viewer will automatically update itself.

Press the refresh_reload_small Synchronize and update button to manually start:

  1. The synchronization of the SQLite database project.sqlite from the SOFiSTiK CDB database project.cdb.

  2. A full update of the model rendering.

Note

Upon the initial opening of the project, the Viewer will automatically create the necessary SQLite database, project.sqlite, from the SOFiSTiK CDB database project.cdb.

Tip

Manually delete the SQLite file to force the Viewer to synchronize the SQLite database during next project loading.

Warning

The SQLite database also contains the user-defined views. If you manually delete the SQLite file, you will also loose all these views.
