Hi guys,
I am facing two serious issues.
First one is that I have around three hundred AI objects . I have created them from copies of a dynamo. Now there is a requirement to change their size and text font. Do i have to do the change in all of them? or is there a way that i can make a change in the dynamo and update in all of them If so kindly guide me through it.
Second in their control modules i have reference parameters. I have to rename the parameters and control modules names. Is there a way to use the bulk edit to do it?
Thanks and Regards
Asim
I was hoping someone would have replied to this question because I face the same situation. If some of you experts can answer this question, please help, thanks.

Hi Guys, I'm feeling generous tonight so thought I'd put together a little demo video on the use of the DeltaV Dynamo Update utility.
Hope this is what you are wanting to do. If not let me know and hopefully we'll get this sorted together.
just to note. If you do decide to let this utility lose on your systems graphics, make sure you've got a current and valid backup of your graphics in case it does mangle them a bit as mentioned in the video. You've been warned.
Video is linked here, give it a while it's still processing, 9 minutes long.

Thanks. Any Delta V tools available from Intuitive?
If the new dynamo has a different size, the location may be a bit off when using the dynamo update tool. In that case you still need to check every display separately if everything is lined up right. Update tool works great anyway.
On the second question. Bulkedit can't add, remove or rename parameters from modules, only change values of existing parameters. It also can't delete modules from the database.
If the modules are class-based, it's of course simple to modify the class and then change the values with a bulkedit in all the instances.
If the modules are template-based, I think the only way is to replace the modules. Basically delete the old ones and bulk-edit new ones. Tip: work with class-based whenever possible.
