The Project-wide Update/Retag command enables you to in one command, modify drawing properties and sheet values, renumber ladders, retag components, retag wire numbers, update component cross referencing, update wire cross referencing and update title blocks.
This is obviously very powerful, but you must consider whether build has started on the equipment prior to running the command. If build has started, then simply deselect the component retag and the wire numbering retag (setting this to new unnumbered only) as mentioned below. If you are in any doubt, make a copy of your project prior to running until you are familiar with the command and its options.
Select Project ribbon tab > Project Tools pane > Update/Retag
OR
Project Manager >
If the equipment is already in build, you should either ensure the following are selected/unselected:
- Deselect
- Select

OR
Run Utilities to fix the existing components tags, wire numbers etc prior to running the Project-wide Update/Retag.
