You can refresh the input data for a cell by right-clicking the cell and selecting the Refresh option from the context menu. The Refresh command passes modified upstream data to the cell but does not conduct any long-running operations to regenerate the cell’s output data.
For example, you can refresh the mesh by right-clicking the Setup cell in Workbench and selecting the Refresh option from the context menu. The state of the Setup cell becomes Update Required. It will become Up-to-Date the next time you launch Polydata from the Setup cell, or if you select the Update option from the context menu of the Setup cell.
Important: Selecting the Update option from the context menu performs a Refresh command (if needed) before performing the Update command. You do not need to perform a Refresh and an Update in two separate steps.
Important: You do not need to refresh the Setup cell if you make a modification to the mesh; the modified mesh will be loaded automatically when you launch Polydata.
Important: If Polydata is open and you make a modification to the mesh, you will not be allowed to refresh the Setup cell unless you first close Polydata.
