domer1322 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I've been making the mistake of saving my own symbols and textures on 2 different files. Each file has about 75% of the same exact resources as the other file. Now I want to have only one file, and I want to combine the files without losing any of the resource symbols and textures. Is there an easy way to do this without having to individually import each symbol/texture/resource into the 'final' file ? Quote Link to comment
bcd Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Hi Dormer. Back up both files just in case. Then - open both and with file A active activate the Resource Browser of file B. Highlight all the textures>Right Click>Import and check "Replace the Texture in the Current Document". This will overwrite the duplicates and import any single instances. Likewise for symbols (except the 'replace - rename - cancel' dialogue box seems to be missing) so it's a one step exercise. File A should now have the complete set. There may be a more elegant way - I'd like to know too. Quote Link to comment
brudgers Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I believe that you can accomplish your goal by referencing one document into the other via DLVP. Be sure to display all the classes and layers. Then in the Navigation browser delete the link. Quote Link to comment
