Editing Project Libraries
How Editing Project Libraries Works
Once the property set master library has been applied to a project, it becomes accessible for Project Admins inside the project where they can edit the library contents and set access control permissions.
Project libraries can also be edited by the Account Admin by selecting the Edit library or Manage permissions option from the project libraries overflow menu. Changes made to the project library will be reflected in that specific project but do not change the master library or any other project library that used the same master library template.
Please use caution when editing project level libraries as some changes may result in data loss. For more information please see Library Versioning in the Workflow Extensions User Guide.
Note: Project property set libraries can also be edited while inside the 3D Viewer.
