Question

I am not sure if this is something that it occuring or not, so could someone else test it. If I have a generic part open and have one or more instance of that generic open. When I make a change to the generic and regen the generic, the instance that is open in not regen'ed. I have to regen the instance separately from it's window.

I find that I keep trying to regen the generic and then release that the error is occuring on an instance that I have open and when I regen that, the corrections made in the generic with then update.

Thanks, Dale

You need to verify the instances in the family table.

If the instance is not open, you get a regeneration error when trying to save unless you have that warning turned off or somehow bypassed. Very annoying! I would rather have a warning that gave me the option to verify all instances before saving. It sounds like having the open instance, the regen in that instance is equivalent to verifying in the generic.

How do you speed up verifying that takes 30-40 minutes? Cannot always justify that for a small change.
