Changing master properties in sense after publishing

I have two questions regarding sense (server). After I publish a document, I can't find a way to change/add any of the master dimensions or expressions. It seems like you have one shot to do this?

Also is there a way to un-publish the application? This might tie into to first question. It seems like there is no way to manipulate something after it has been published. I must be missing something right?

Hi David,

The current workflow is to duplicate the application, modify the duplicate and then republish. I think this is covered in the manual. It works pretty well but I'm assuming a more advanced workflow (perhaps involving version control?) is coming!

When I make the duplication I cannot modify the master metrics and dimensions. This means that I must know ahead of time ALL the possible metrics and dimensions that would be needed?

I agree with the workflow you describe above with one extra step... delete the original after the changes are made OR leave both versions... I would think this will lead to 100s of duplicated sheets with small changes being published.

I understand the workflow now... the duplication happens at the app level not at the sheet level. fair enough, thanks
