Edit a Super Genie Library Object

If you modify a Super Genie while its project is running in the background, you will be prompted to 'Update Pages'. This will update your changes in the runtime environment. If a runtime page containing the Super Genie is displayed when the change is made, it will not be updated until after you exit the page and display it again.

For those pages created from a Super Genie, if the parameter [CtDraw.RSC]AllowEditSuperGeniePage is set to 0 (the default), a message will be displayed that will help prevent you from editing the Super Genie page directly. Instead you will need to edit the Super Genie Library object that created that page.

If the parameter [CtDraw.RSC]AllowEditSuperGeniePage is set to 1, a message will display that asks for confirmation before allowing you to edit the page directly.

Note: Changes made directly to a page (created from a Super Genie) will be overridden when you ' Update Pages'.

To open an existing Super Genie library object:

1. Open Graphics Builder.

2. Click the Open toolbar button, or select Open from the File menu.

3. Select the Super Genie tab.

4. Select the Project and Library in which the Super Genie is stored.

5. Select the Super Genie.

6. Click OK.

To delete a Super Genie library object:

7. Open Graphics Builder.

8. Click the Open toolbar button, or select Open from the File menu.

9. Select the Super Genie tab.

10. Select the Project and Library in which the Super Genie is stored.

11. Select the Super Genie and click Delete.

    A confirmation message will display.

12. Click OK to delete the library object.

Deleting a Super Genie that has been attached to a Genie will not cause that Genie to become inoperable at runtime.

Note: If you delete a Super Genie that is in use, the object configured to call the page at runtime will become inoperable.
