Change properties in user libraries

I'm creating multiple instances of Fixed resources which I customised in User library. If I change the properties in User library, it gets reflected to the new objects not to the existing ones in the model. Is there a way I could make it reflect in the exiting objects. (For example: Adding a new label)

Also, you can include the custom functionality script in a user command and change the user command when required. This will get transferred across all the objects.

I think that is not possible, because you combine predefined labels with instanced labels in your model under the labels node.

Suggested tools:

Property Tables

tool: edit selected objects

There is a new feature under development called "template instances". It should improve this kind of task. Look for it in a future FlexSim feature release.

@Jörg Vogel's suggestion is a good solution for now.
