Updating materials...

The option "Update materials..." found in the "Cutting List..." or "Costing..." dialogs forces interiorCAD to reload the materials database from disk into your VW document. Depending on your hardware configuration and materials database size, this may take a while. Here's how to update only specific materials:

• Enter new materials with the "Edit boards..." command (or, if you're brave, edit the "Boards.txt" file directly)
• Check your VectorWorks resource palette for a worksheet called "* Materials (Boards)" and delete it.
• Run "Cutting List..." or "Costing..." again, don't check the option "Update materials"
• interiorCAD will run the cutting list or costing and will only load the missing "Boards" worksheet instead of reloading the comple materials database
