    A message is displayed stating that the selected objects are updated. Check for Update > All downloads updated files to the disk. The files can be reopened once the command is successful. Designer Central cannot over-write and update files if,

    • GCO attribute CatSetReadWriteAccessBasedOnLockUnLockOptions is set to TRUE.
    • Files selected for update are checked out without lock.
