Title	Custom Designer - Linked Object Properties - data that is imported or created using a sequence or counter is "linked"

Body

Note: With UI changes in BWS release 4.10, Linked Object Properties options now appear at the bottom of the window.

Linked Object Properties

Linked Objects are objects on multiple labels that have been imported or generated using the basic Sequence or Advanced Sequence plugins. Note: Linked Object Properties only lets you modify object format attributes such as font size and position of imported data, not the data itself.
To change data that has be imported:

Delete the Selected Object, then add the new data into the label. How to change or edit "linked" data - an object on the label that was created from an import
Make changes in the data source (Excel, Notepad, SQL, etc) and then Refresh imported data in the software - Data Refresh in Brady Workstation

Same as All in Set

This selection means any modification made to the linked object will effect all other linked objects.

Modify font size for a linked object

Although it is not recommended as a best practice, you can copy and paste imported data fields on the same label and then edit the pasted version. When finished, delete the original imported data field.

Notice this change applies to all labels with that linked object
