Can one globally replace the Author of ALL elem's?
« on: August 15, 2013, 09:37:17 am »
For some strange reason the Author of all elements I drew so far is the windows user name (and not the Author I specified in Options -> General -> Author).

  • Why is EA not respecting this setting?
  • How can I globally replace this?

You need to either write a script or you can do that with a little SQL (called from a script):
Code: [Select]
Repository.Execute("UPDATE t_object SET Author='new author'")

Are you using the security system insied the EA?
If yes, the EA take its username->Author form this login.
