Assembly Not Up to Date

When you switch back to the assembly window after editing a component in a separate window, several situations can cause the rebuild of the assembly to be skipped.

Usually, when you switch back to the assembly window, a message asks if you want to rebuild. If you click No, the rebuild is skipped.

If the message does not appear and the rebuild is skipped, it is for one of these reasons:
  • Previously, you selected Don't show again in the message box. Now when you switch back to the assembly window, the selection you made then (Yes or No) is automatically applied. If that selection was No, then the rebuild is skipped.
  • The assembly is in Large Assembly Mode, and option Do not rebuild when switching to assembly window is selected. The rebuild of the assembly is skipped even if you have previously selected Don't show again and clicked Yes (to rebuild).

When a rebuild is skipped, a yellow warning triangle appears on Rebuild (Standard toolbar), and a tooltip states Assembly not up to date.

To rebuild the assembly:

Click Rebuild (Standard toolbar) or Edit > Rebuild.
