Rebuild/refresh element only

I'm working in plan, change two walls or any element and want to see what it looks like in elevation. Immediately.
Go to the se elevation window, which is already open (tiled windows).
No rebuild has occured because my window is set to manual rebuild.
How can I rebuild only those two walls??
I can only get to see those two walls changed by rebuild the se window from the model.
Have I missed something? I could save lots of time if I could just refresh, rebuild, redraw, whatever, those two walls. Some of my elevations take 60 seconds to rebuild. That adds up to a lot of time sitting there looking at the progress bar and trying to guess how long.

It's all or nothing Tom. You have to beuild the whole window.

Sure you love to hear that after all your S/E woes. If it makes you feel any better GS has been made well aware of your issues.

Cheers,

You could make a small temporary elevation of just the area you are working in. I do that a lot on larger elevations.

I guess that will have to do.
