Updating an existing XML model
There are two ways to update an existing XML model, depending on whether
the Preserve modifications option is selected or not:
Preserve modifications Result
Selected You can manually compare and merge the existing
XML model (right pane) with the newly generated
XML model (left pane)
Not selected The existing XML model is automatically replaced
by the newly generated XML model
If the Preserve modifications check box is selected, the Merge Models
window appears after the new XML model has been successfully generated.
You can use the Merge window to select objects to be updated, deleted, or
added to the model to be merged. The model must be open in the workspace
to be merged with a source model.
If the Preserve modifications check box is not selected, the existing model is
replaced.
