Embedded Symbol Definition Automatic Update


jardenblack26

Question

For space objects - and I think this is true of other objects with embedded symbols -  if you modify the underlying symbol definition the new definition is not pushed to the space object until a change is made.  The easiest way I have found is toggling the "2D-Boundry" box.  But this is a pain and can lead to errors.  There needs to be a way for these objects to update automatically when the container symbol is modified.

I think this is common for all plug-ins that use symbols.

 

There is a menu command to do this.  Tools > Utilities > Reset All Plug-Ins.  It will also reset doors, windows, cabinets, etc. - so it's a little bit of overkill.  But it's better than modifying every space object in the drawing and restoring the modification.

 

But I agree, it would be nice if plug-in objects recognized editing the symbol as an event.
