How to reload a model for export

Hey all,

I am trying to export a model to a step file. I know the model is somewhat actively worked on, as we are in development.

When I go to export the model, I get an error saying "The selected components cannot be exported because some of them were modified in the current repository after the session was created. Please refresh your session and launch the Export command again."

My question is how do you "refresh" your session? I've been completely closing and reopening the assembly. By the time I have it open again, someone has modified it again.

Is there any way to just export what is in my session?

Thanks,
Jeff

Try to refresh first, that button or near that one (see screenshot), there is a big difference between them.

Best regards

Fernando

As Fernando specified, use the Global Refresh icon.  You'll need to activate the Part level of the tree, not the 3D Shape level and it should be in the Tools section.
