V3 was waiting for me yesterday and it looks amazing. I opened up one of my files and looked at the Diagram Options box (amongst other things!) and noticed that certain options were indicated in red that I should 'perform' a 'diagram rebuild'.
At first glance, I can't spot that in the manual, but, WHY and HOW?
Can't check the programme as I am not at home.

It means it will do a diagram rebuild so if you have moved boxes around, or deleted boxes they will move back to the original positions.

Thanks Jane, I think I see. However, surely if I've moved or removed boxes intentionally, when & why would I want them restored? Obviously, it will be easier to see when I've FH open in front of me.

Unless Manual substantially changed from Beta Version pages 77,78 in Chapter 7 - More features of diagrams.
Explains what it is used for.

If you change the settings in red, the fundamental diagram changes, so FH can not carry over the items.

All it means is you need to ensure you have the right base settings prior to customising the layout.

This is why FH warns you with the red highlights.
