> In 2.2.7, do they update if you press CTRL+L after editing the
graphics?

Yes, they do but that's not the current problem.

Enter your editor and follow the instructions. Create a "local-
sprite" in two different rooms and place a guardian with the same
sprite in its room. You place a sprite "A" in a first room and
sprite "B" in the second one, for example.

So you now have two rooms, where in first room there is a guardian
with sprite "A" and in the second room you have a guardian with
sprite "B".

For example you've just finished editing the second room with
sprite "B". Then you agreed to continue editing the first room.
You've entered it and what do you see?

You see the first room and the guardian but its sprite still looks
like "B"!!! And in all other rooms, all their local sprites would
look like sprites "B"!

If, when in the first room, you've entered a window with local-
sprites, and then again enter the main editing screen all the sprites
would be updated to A. So the first room would look fine. But, again
if you will now switch to the second room , all the sprites will look
like A, though they must look like B in the second room.

Have I made myself clear, John?

This is actually a problem. Write.
