Description
Sometimes when a user applies changes to the model, FreeCAD does not seem to recognize/integrate them. In addition to that, the blue 
Refresh/Recompute button remains greyed out. Hence this small macro was designed to force a manual recompute of the model.
Note: As of version 0.17 and above the effect of this macro can be achieved through the GUI. Right-click project in model tree view, and pick Mark to recompute from the context menu. What this does is make the Refresh/Recompute icon active again. Now press on the Refresh/Recompute button to trigger a recompute.
Usage
Run the macro when necessary.
