If you have a complex fabric, and you are using the Fabric controls to restrict plans for viewing or calculation, you sometimes need to suspend their actions to use all plans and survey data of the fabric in some other aspect of plan test. For instance, to view results of analytic tests. Use of the suspend and resume controls is most often used to retain check box selections on large fabrics.
Note: If using the Joins Tool , it will be disabled on 'Resume'.
