Auto Refresh

When the Options menu > Auto Refresh command is active (preceded by a checkmark), SAP2000 will automatically update the on-screen display each time changes are made. When working with a very large or complex model, turning this feature off may be helpful to reduce downtime associated with redrawing the model. When the feature is turned off, use the Refresh Window button or the View menu > Refresh View command to update the on-screen display.
