ATREFRESH_LABELS_FULL |
Full label refresh — reload all data from database and regenerate labels |
Prerequisites
- A FireCAD project must be open
Overview
The ATREFRESH_LABELS_FULL command performs a complete data reload from the database followed by label regeneration. This is slower than ATREFRESH_LABELS but ensures all data is current by reloading entities, segments, circuits, and device types from the database before recalculating labels.
Steps
- Type
ATREFRESH_LABELS_FULLin the AutoCAD command line - FireCAD reloads all entity data from the database
- All labels regenerate from the fresh data
When to Use
- After operations that create new data in the database (duplicating drawings, restoring drawings)
- When
ATREFRESH_LABELSdoesn't fix label issues (data may be stale in the cache) - After external database modifications
- As a troubleshooting step for persistent label problems
