Provide Symbol Options if Double Click Symbol


PeterT

Question

Please add the "Symbol Options" choice to the Edit Symbol Dialog when you double click a symbol instance in the drawing.

When you edit a symbol in the resource browser you get "2D Component", "3D Component", and "3D Wall Hole Component" and "Symbol Options" edit choices, but when you double click the symbol, you get everything except the "Symbol Options" choice.

Why should the two dialogs be different, especially when they have the same name (Edit Symbol)?

This is because in the resource browser, you are editing the symbol format and in the drawing a symbol instance.

This is not true. When you edit a symbol by double clicking it you are editing the symbol definition, just like if you edit it from the resource browser.

You should have the same options. I find it much faster to double click a symbol on the drawing if you have one, rather than navigating through nested symbol folders to find the symbol.
