    I understand that when you modify/change the layers in the cross-section, then this does not get updated in Artwork Control Form.
    After modifying the layers name in the cross-section, next time when you invoke launch Artwork menu, click on 'Generate Films' option in Artwork Control Form before creating artwork. When you click this option, then the Available Films in Artwork Control Form gets updated as per the cross-section changes.
