Editing Symbols

Once a symbol instance is placed in a drawing, its information can be displayed in the Object Info palette. Select a symbol instance to display its properties. A symbol’s location can be adjusted, or its layer and class association can be changed, by selecting a new class or layer from the appropriate list. A symbol can be replaced with another symbol, rotated in 2D or 3D space, and, for symbols located in walls, flipped, replaced, and repositioned.

If you delete a symbol definition and there are instances of that symbol in the drawing, you can specify whether to replace all instances with loci or to delete them completely.
