Delete Settings with Missing Partner TFC Files

If connections (wall ends, T-joints) to other HRB files are defined, the definition for the current HRB file is stored in the current HRB file and the definition for the partner wall is stored in the other HRB file. This is necessary because each HRB file must be executable on its own. If the current HRB file is then saved under a different name, a new setting is immediately created in the partner file so that all connections are again defined. Over time this results in a multitude of settings, many of which are no longer required because the partner file no longer exists.

If one now, for example, goes in the "T-joints - perpendicular from the rear" to the overview of existing settings, one sees particularly in the lower pane many settings that were once defined but whose HRB file no longer exists; the HRB file is listed in the left-hand list. You select such an entry and press the delete button. A warning message first appears indicating that the formerly connected partner HRB file no longer exists. Until now this setting could not be deleted for safety reasons. Since version 22.01, after dismissing the warning message, a dialog box then appears offering to delete the setting. This allows many HRB files to be freed of unnecessary settings, resulting in improved clarity and smaller files.

Note: The warning message also appears if the preview on the right in the graphic is enabled and you focus on a setting with a missing file. This warning message is very disruptive when you want to delete multiple superfluous settings. In that case it is best to set the graphic to auxiliary image.
