Using LLBLgen 3.5, I'm just exploring the QuickModel feature (which is quite nice simple_smile

I looked at the video on http://perseus.home.xs4all.nl/LLBLGenPro/Videos/LLBLGenProv3.0_QuickModel.html and then started playing.

I just noticed that the following workflow gives an error :

start with clean slate : -> Customer.Orders 1n Order.Customer -> correctly creates 2 entities as in the video -> #cm -> clears the model -> Customer.Orders 1n Order.Customer -> now gives in the log : Error detected: Invalid field name specified: 'The name 'Orders' is already in use by a field, navigator or other element.'

Am I overlooking something ? It seems to me the model is not full "cleared" ...

Kind regards, Sven.

edit : this error does NOT happen when I used '#d Customer' and '#d Order' instead of '#cm'

Kind regards, Sven.

cm clears the view simple_smile Not the model. So say you want to add 40 entities, and after 10 or so , you want to clear the view of quickmodel, so you use #cm, you get a clean canvas, but the 10 entities you added are still in the model of course.

Quickmodel is, like a model view, a view on a part of the model, you can clear the view, but clearing the view isn't clearing the model.
