Delete Media?

[sofia-bg]

As I work on a this new layout I am finding that I want different symbols for the same label. I have my spreadsheet automatically name symbols "label + .png" to make my life easier which makes it autopopulate with symbols from old layouts. Also have a few symbols that evidently were corrupted when uploaded, so their names are taken in my OS-DPI media but they do not show a symbol.

I know I could go through spreadsheet and make unique names for different symbol iterations (play1 play2 etc) but wondering if instead we could offload media.

Along same vein, could we export media the same way we do spreadsheets? So if someone shares an OS.DPI file and I want to take their media for another project I can? I suppose instead could just save as a new version and offload their spreadsheet so I have the media names already...

I would like to see a design with symbols that you think are corrupted. That should not happen.

Yes, we need a way to edit media. With the Menus that should be straightforward. I'll add it to the list.

Exporting media should be possible though it is likely to result in a Zip file containing the images since triggering multiple downloads would be a pain...

corrupted might be wrong word, they were files from Open Symbols that I exported as .png but were initially .svg and I didn't realize that meant that the actual image wasn't saved even though my computer made a file. See eat example below.

If you load a new image with the same name won't it replace it?

Ok great that works! Thanks

I also wondered about sharing media along with .osdpi files. Would the creator upload the .osdpi file and then a folder with media @gbishop or upload a zip file with everything contained in one place?

[gbishop]

The media are contained within the osdpi file which is actually a Zip file itself. If you open it, your computer may just recognize that it is a zip file and unpack it for you.

When I try to open the .osdpi files I get the following error message. Can they be opened on a PC?

[gbishop]

On the PC try changing the suffix from osdpi to zip.

Great! That worked on my mac too

@gbishop @aetkie

[aetkie]

This worked for me too! Game changer! Now I don't have to find and save my own symbols. Thank you @gbishop and @sofia-bg
