When you get a version of a drawing, you do not see updates to that drawing after the point in time when you subscribed to it. That is, the two versions of the drawing are not linked dynamically.

Linked files are not transferred by Workshare. Those files must be transferred manually. We do not recommend using linked files in a Workshare collaboration.

You can click Workshare > Schedule Get Latest Version from Remote to open the Schedule Task Wizard and defer the subscription to a later time or on a regular interval. You must still complete the next step in this procedure.
