Editing dynamic objects


    You change the data associated with a variable by editing the object to which it is bound. For example, if you're working with a Visibility variable, you change the object's state of visibility in the Layers palette. Editing dynamic objects lets you create multiple data sets for use in the template. (See Using data sets.)

To edit a dynamic object:

  1. Select a dynamic object on the artboard. Do one of the following to automatically select a dynamic object:
    • Alt-click (Windows) or Option-click (Mac OS) a variable in the Variables palette.
    • Select a variable in the Variables palette, and choose Select Bound Object from the Variables palette menu.
  2. Edit the data associated with the object as follows:

To select all dynamic objects:

    Choose Select All Bound Objects from the Variables palette menu.
