Is this an error, or is there a reason for it being removed?
Area schedule- right click 'regenerate' missing?

Just hit cleanup, that will update the schedule.
Unfortunately, nope. Cleanup does clean some things up in schedules but only a Regenerate will take care of all items in the schedule. Regenerate is essential and I never send out a drawing without regenerating all schedules. If cleanup could regenerate a schedule there would be no need to have the Regenerate button in the schedule properties.

Hey Brent. There are numerous cases I can cite but can't demonstrate because they are not apparent until I do a regenerate. For example, adding items to the drawing and even though they may show up in the schedule they are not sorted properly. A regenerate properly sorts the items. Copying items from one drawing to another, or perhaps it is merging drawings, will often not show the added items until a regenerate. Renumbering ceiling joists requires a regenerate to show the changes in the schedule. See the attachment. A cleanup did not resort the joists. I always regenerate to be absolutely sure that the schedules are correct. Always. And removing the right click regenerate only makes this process more difficult.
