External Strategies - updating objects with

[system]

@BJiracek

Hi All,
I have experimenting with external strategies (I’ve been using object strategies) and find they are pretty slick. However, I cannot figure out how to update a current object. If an object has already been built in the universe, and then the description or underlying table changes. How can I update the current object by using the external strategy (updating the text file which the universe is based upon)? If I try to highlight that object and insert it, nothing happens. If I try to drag and drop it onto the object in the universe, I get an hourglass like something is going on, but the result is no change. Any ideas would be highly appreciated.

If you are open to a Designer SDK solution, this topic may give you a place to start. It focuses on object names and descriptions, but could be modified to include the select and other portions of an objects definition.
