Project integrity check - How many passes?
« on: July 08, 2015, 09:52:09 pm »
How many times should I do Project integrity check to get rid of all orphaned objects / elements?

"No problems found" (and no orphaned objects) shows after fifth pass.
Is it normal?

Why first pass of Project integrity check can't find all orphaned objects?

Once you have no errors, you can stop.

Five passes is a large number, but your repository must have been very heavily damaged...

Because I do some weird stuff I run the integrity check many times a day.  It's a REALLY good "Security Blanket".

Run it frequently (to suit your needs), to keep your repository in top condition.

I ran it once at each weekend. Doing it regularly keeps the number of errors it claims low.

Just by curiosity. Is there a way to run Project Integrity Check automatically?

I don't think so. But for sure worth a feature request.

Probably if you simulate clicks like it has been suggested here for a couple of other things.
