Refreshing the Colors, Externals, and Font Sets tabs


    You can use the Refresh View command to check the current site on the Workgroup Server for added or removed colors, references, or font sets and update the Colors, Externals, and Font Sets tabs of the site window to reflect any changes.

    You can also set up an automatic refresh of the Colors, Externals, and Font Sets tabs. For instructions see Setting automatic refreshing of the Colors, External and Font Sets tabs

    For a more comprehensive rescan of the entire site on the server for new colors, references, or font sets, use the Get Items Used command on the Site menu. If the scan finds new colors, references, or font sets that aren't listed, New Item groups are created and added to the appropriate tabs in the site window.

To manually refresh the view of the Colors, External, and Fontsets tab:

  1. Click the Colors, External, or Fontsets tab in the site window.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • Click the Refresh View button on the toolbar.
    • Choose Site > Refresh View.
    • Right-mouse click (Windows) or Ctrl-click (Mac OS) in the tab, then choose Refresh View from the context menu.
    • Press the F5 key (Windows only).

To rescan the site on the Workgroup Server for items used:

  1. Click the Colors, External, or Fontsets tab in the site window.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • Choose Site > Get Items Used.
    • Right-mouse click (Windows) or Ctrl-click (Mac OS) in the tab, and choose Get Items Used from the context menu.

    Note: The specific command displayed on the Site and context menus varies with the tab you select. The Get References Used command, for example, is displayed when you select the External tab.
