If you have updated a template XML file outside of Maya you need to reload it in order to synchronize the asset with your changes.
For example, if you have reorganized the attributes within a custom view using an external XML editor, you need to reload the template in order for your changes to be displayed.
To reload a template
- In the left panel of the Asset Editor, select an asset that uses the template you have updated and click the Pin Asset icon
. - From the Asset Editor menu bar, select Template > Reload.
Maya reloads the template and updates the display of attributes in the various windows and editors.
