Managing Authors and Descriptions in Binary Models or Projects
Monarch saves relevant information each time a Model or Project file is created.
This information includes the author of the model as well as its description, all defined templates, fields, filters, sorts, and summaries, and general input settings, among others.
In most cases, model/project information cannot be edited by design. However, Monarch Utility provides an easy way to change such information.
