Dynamic Link Bug ( ? ) - Updated .psd file In 3D Stager NOT Updating After Edit in Photoshop

Hello and good morning.  Perhaps a bug ?

I applied a .psd file to an ojbject in 3D Stager,

then decided I wanted to modify the .PSD file in Photoshop,

so I opened Photoshop, did my edit, and saved the file and quit Photoshop.

I then waited for Stager to update the edited PSD file, but it didn't. So I closed Stager completely

and started the program again. - The object in Stager is still reflecting the original .psd I had applied to the object ( a simple square )  So in the end, I had to delete the .psd file ( my applied material ) and bring it back in, and only then did it reflect the updated changes I had done in Photoshop. 

That's it,  I will continue to give bug and help out where I can.

Hi @Animation Guy! When using PSD and AI files within Stager, a copy of it is made. Any changes done to the original file will not effect the one in Stager. To edit a PSD, AI, or image file added to Stager:

  • Select the object that has the file you want to edit
  • Go to the properties > materials
  • Select the graphic you want to edit
  • Look for image > click on the thumbnail picture
  • Click the pencil icon to edit the image (This will open up the file in Photoshop if it is a PSD, png, jpeg file or Illustrator if it is an AI file)
  • Edit the image
  • Save document and the changes will show within Stager
