Edit 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 panel. Editing dynamic objects
lets you create multiple data sets for use in the template.
1 Select a dynamic object on the artboard, or do one of the following to automatically select a dynamic object:
Alt-click (Windows) or Option-click (Mac OS) a variable in the Variables panel.
Select a variable in the Variables panel, and choose Select Bound Object from the Variables panel menu.
To select all dynamic objects, choose Select All Bound Objects from the Variables panel menu.
2 Edit the data associated with the object as follows:
For text, edit the text string on the artboard.
For linked files, replace the image using the Links panel or the File > Place command.
For graphs, edit the data in the Graph Data dialog box.
For all objects with dynamic visibility, change the state of visibility for the object in the Layers panel.
