Work with linked assets

---

When you find the symbol library you need, you can link it to the document so that it is available for use. The Linked assets view in the Assets docker lets you access the symbol libraries that are linked to the active document. If the symbol libraries are linked from the Cloud, you can refresh the file list to sync it with your Cloud folder.

You can open your linked symbol libraries for editing, but not linked libraries that are shared with you. You can also sync linked libraries with the source so that their symbols are always up-to-date.
