Editing of foreign objects and symbols inserted into a draft document has been improved.
Now you can use the new Edit command on the shortcut menu of an object or symbol to in-place activate it so that you can edit it directly in the draft document. Previously, only the Open command was available to open it in its native application.
For more information, see Activate an object for editing.
In-place activation applies when you link or embed an object using the Insert Object command, and when you place a symbol using the Link, Embed, or Shared Embed symbol placement method.
The new edit behavior is the default behavior when you double-click an embedded, but not a linked, object or symbol. However, a new option on the General tab in the Solid Edge Options dialog box (Draft environment), Double-click to open embedded objects in native app (Excel, Word, etc.), lets you reset the behavior to that of previous releases.
