Button in 4D Pro for instant 'Synchronize changes from iModel Manager'

Please could a button be added to Synchro 4D Pro to allow you to 'Synchronize changes from iModel to Manager'.

This would be invaluable as it would mean you would see the changes that have been made in Synchro Modeler much faster; as well as any changes made to the iModel connections.

At the moment you have to wait for the routine 'synchronise from iModel' which can take hours to happen.

    An alternative way for synchronising the changes that have been made in 4D Pro so that they are visible on the iModel in the Control portal, would be to add a button in the Synchro Control portal. If you are an Admin then you can go to Administration > Manage iModel and click on the menu button. This currently has these options:

    • Edit

    • Change cover

    • View Changes and Named versions

    • Download .sp file

    • Delete

    It would be really useful if a new option could be added for 'Synchronise iModel'

    You would then be able to see the changes that have been made almost in real time.


    A further related functionality that would be useful would be to select how often you want the iModel to synchronise. An hourly synchronise would be very helpful.
