dissappearing constraints?

My problem is that in the explorer, a constraint pose, for example, dissappears
. However the object is still constrained and the Constraint folder is still in
the kinematics of said object. There's just no constraint in it. Save, close
and restart XSI, open the scene, and the pose constraint is back in the folder
like nothing happened. Yay.

However is there an easier way, possibly a way to refresh the scene with out
having to close and reopen? Some of the scenes I'm working with take up to 15
minutes to load.

An aside to that.

Does anyone get odd things happening with their construction history? I've got
a scene that the geometry of a character is sitting at 0,0,0. I change the mode
from model to animate and the character's geo still sits at 0,0,0,. It's not
until I change the display mode to Result in all windows will the geometry go
back to the rig. This doesn't happen all the time and no, the envelope
operators are still there.
