Generate the Graphics
Once the critical attributes of a VIEW are set (for example, by an AUTO command) the graphics can be generated by:
UPDATE DESIGN
SAVEWORK
Note:
The UPDATE command creates the VIEW graphics in a Central Picture Store (CPS) within the computer's memory.
The SAVEWORK command is not necessary but is recommended. It saves the graphics in the CPS to Picture Files in the Picture File directory. In subsequent DRAW sessions, the graphics are read from the Picture File without the need for an UPDATE command.
If you leave DRAW via a QUIT command the graphics in the CPS are not saved and any existing Picture Files are not updated.
Leaving DRAW by switching to another module performs an implicit SAVEWORK, graphics in the CPS are saved to Picture Files.
