| Toolbar |
The following tools are available in the Building Designer: Verify Part and Family dialog toolbar.
 Refresh — Click to refresh the list of parts in the dialog. If a part is added or deleted in the model, the list is out of date. This list is dynamic and displays only the parts in the active model (including references). -
 Apply Active Part — Used to apply the part listed to a part in the model, using the Apply Part tool. If a part in the model is selected, the new part is applied when a data point is issued to accept. If a part is not selected, a prompt appears to select a part and accept it.
-
 Create Missing Part — Searches the model for invalid or missing parts, then creates the part and enters it in the dataset. Missing parts are created using a set of predefined default values. These are the same default values that are used when a new part is created in the Family/Part Editor.
-
 Part Report — Creates a report of parts (Microsoft Office Excel spreadsheet). A standard dialog appears to name the report and select a directory location.
