Automatic content loading

This option (when activated) will ensure that the list of objects displayed in each layer or set in the Model tab of the Main window (when working in Content Sample mode - see Options window) is updated automatically - you do, however, need a live connection to the Management schema for this to function correctly (see Working online for more information):

This option (when activated) will ensure that a change in the Model (e.g.: definition of new layers/sets, editing existing layers sets or modifying/editing dependencies between layers) does not remove results that have been retrieved from the CAST Analysis Service. A button called Clear invalidated results will appear in the bottom right hand corner of the screen (following the change) to indicate that the results showing in the Model are no longer valid:

Clicking the button will remove the results from the Model tab. To regenerate them use any of the following options:
