Rename source graphics and hosting objects

  • Last UpdatedJul 05, 2024

Generally, if you rename source graphics or their hosting objects, embedded graphics update their references to the updated name of the renamed source graphic or hosting object.

However, if you are using relative references and you rename the contained name of the referenced object, the references to the embedded graphic are broken.

You can identify embedded graphics that may cause a problem by clicking on the embedded graphics and viewing the SymbolReference property from the Properties Editor. If the SymbolReference property contains relative references such as me or myContainer, renaming the contained name of the referenced object causes the reference to be broken.

Also, if any instance of the hosting object is checked out, when you change the contained name of the referenced object, even after you check-in the instance:

  • The change is not propagated to the instance.

  • Validating the object does not indicate an error.
