[Pattern Brush Preset] Parts of brushes are premanently linked with symbols.
-
I wanted to play with brushes a bit. I created a Pattern Brushes with starting and ending parts, but when I deleted from project any of component symbols they disappear from created brushes also. Is there any addictional step to break the link between them when I'm sure that editing is complete?

@encart Depends how the brush was created. If it links to these objects a symbols, the yes, change the object will change the brush.
Was it a "Create ... Preset", or "Create ... Style"? -
@vectoradmin Create Preset.
Edit:
Same result when i created new Create...Style.

The problems is that the pattern content uses symbols linking into the document. This is by design for symbols.
Maybe when creating Presets maybe these symbols should be detached (copied) and not linked?Meanwhile a workaround. How were those symbols created?
There are three ways to create symbols in VS:
- setting the object name and role (will be linked).
- creating from an object in the Symbols panel (will be linked).
- creating in the Presets panel (will not be linked). This one should be used for presets.
