Resolve a Conflict in Design Maps

Resolve inconsistencies between a design map you have included in your job site design and design maps for the same design on assigned controllers by choosing which map to use on all. A conflict is indicated by the active Resolve button with the icon in the Job Site Design Manager command pane.

Causes of a design map conflict include differences in design map names, dates, or the objects they contain.

Note: Note: Configuration (.cfg) files do not appear in this dialog, even if the only conflict is between them.
Note: The Undo and Redo commands do not affect any of the functions that synchronize files. Undo and Redo affect only edits made to database objects within your project; this does not include files in the data synchronization area (which SCS and GCS use). If you try to undo a conflict resolution, the Resolve button remains disabled because the conflict is still resolved.

To resolve a design map conflict:

  1. Click Resolve in the Job Site Design Manager.
  2. Click Yes if asked if you want to resolve conflicts by using the project-based map. Otherwise, click No. The Resolve Design Map Conflict dialog displays, showing Design maps in your project and on assigned controllers that are in conflict.
  3. Select a design map file in the list, and click OK. The conflict is resolved, and the design map file is updated in the data synchronization area.

    Warning: Resolving a conflict by selecting the project-based design map overwrites the design map on assigned controllers when they are synchronized.
