Hello,
We ran into the following case: a project started showing that it couldn't find the resource when trying to open the Interlinear. Looking into it, we found that the RVC2025 update changed the resource's GUID, even though the visible name ("RVC") stayed the same:
- ID before: aaa19db7ade2da326a24f3e4404dca555ae62ab9abcdefff
- ID after: cc1470a08113a6270385fb30c6b919b16916a9d3abcdefff
The Interlinear was still pointing to the old ID, which no longer existed after the update. We fixed it by editing the <MdlScrTextId> tag in the interlinear's configuration file — updating only the GUID portion, not the whole line. That field carries the GUID plus a trailing abcdefff, and that trailing part has to be kept as-is; otherwise Paratext can't locate the resource when opening the Interlinear.
On a separate occasion we saw something similar with a Layout, after updating a different resource — same kind of error. I didn't confirm that case by checking the GUIDs directly, but based on the behavior it looks like the same underlying issue.
I want to flag this specifically: updates that change a resource's GUID are not propagating that change to other places that depend on it, such as Interlinears. Since the resource's visible name doesn't change, there's no way for the user to see this coming until the feature fails.
Thanks (gracias) for looking into this.
Pepe.
