Editing a downloaded flag note

Editing a downloaded flag note

I have a flag note that I downloaded and I want to edit the font. The process I take to do so is: Annotate -> Symbol Gallery -> Redefine. I select the flag note from the drawing and the editor window appears. I then right click on the number inside the flag note to select the properties and then select the Text Style tab to adjust the font. Once I make the changes I'm not sure how to save it. I've saved the text style using the save icon in the properties window but that does not change the flag note. Any suggestions?

You have to Write the modified symbol back to disk or the library.

In the Symbol Editor list is a Write option, that is the save.

That worked perfectly for the text inside the flag note. However, when I change the height of the flag note and use the Write > Pick Instance , it seems to not save the new height of the flag note. When I open the newly saved flag note, it keeps the original height.
