Replica and Replication Properties

Replicas have the property sheets appropriate to their object type. For example, a replica of a class has a standard class property sheet. However, by default, the property sheet of a replica is read-only because all its properties are synchronized with the original object.

• Opening the Property Sheet of a Replication
  In order to make editable any of the properties of a replica, you must open the properties of the replication responsible for its link with the original object.
• Modifying the Original Object Properties
  You can access and change the properties of the original object from the replication property sheet.
• Synchronizing Replicas
  When you create a replica to a target model that has never been saved, you should save the target model before the referencing model in order to allow synchronization between the models. If you attempt to save the referencing model first, you will be prompted to save the target model.
• Desynchronizing Replica Properties
  By default, when you replicate an object, all of its properties are also replicated, and synchronized to the original, and are uneditable in the replica property sheet.
