Attached needs some more detailed info. Or at least show what has been fixed.

I rolled the dice...

UPDATE;
Ran the beast around the track a few times and no oil leaks yet.
However; with no real info, all this dialog does it scare the you know what out of me for what?
Will it go puff in the night?
Is it a fatal flaw or minor whatever?
Will it have printing problems at deadline?
In other words, what level of risk is file in.
A risk status bar might be helpful.

I think telling the user how the error is fixed may become too technical.
The user can look at the affected elements so he see if they look and act like they used to. Maybe a Slab was degenerated and was modified by the program. Now it does not look like you drafted it so you may want to delete it and redo it. Looking at the element helps you decide whether there is any action needed on your part.

If you save it at this stage under a new name then you will have the version prior to and after the problem occured. So any element will probably be available in either of these versions in case elements were deleted.

Hi Laszlo
Thanks for the reply.
However, I did not mean to imply "how" it was fixed, just what was fixed, as it did not do what it said it would with the little button to the right.

Still feel it should give a status of relative risk to file right there or
at least a link that worked.

If you clicked on that button and it did not show anything then I think those elements were deleted. That's why it cannot show them.
