Importing InTouch SmartSymbols into an Industrial Graphic

You can use InTouch SmartSymbols in Industrial graphics by importing (migrating) them. The SmartSymbol appearance and configuration is imported and converted to animation configuration.

The imported SmartSymbol can:

• Be added to the existing elements on the canvas.

• Replace the existing elements on the canvas.

Generally, you can import any InTouch SmartSymbol into an Industrial Graphic.

Note: The SmartSymbol can contain objects that cannot be imported, or can be imported but have limited functionality. For a full list of these objects, see Restrictions for SmartSymbol import.

To import an InTouch SmartSymbol into an Industrial Graphic

1. Open the Industrial Graphic Editor.

2. On the Special menu, click Import InTouch SmartSymbol. The Find InTouch Application Wizard appears.

3. If your InTouch application is in a different folder than the default, click the browse button to browse for the path to the InTouch application.

4. Select Find Applications. The Search Root box shows the path under which all applications are to be searched.

5. If your InTouch application is not under the specified Search Root path, change the Search Root path by typing a new start folder for the search or browsing for one.

6. Click Find. All InTouch applications contained in the specified Search Root folder are found and listed.

7. Select the application from which you want to import SmartSymbols and click Next. The Select InTouch SmartSymbol dialog box appears.

8. Browse to the location of the SmartSymbol in the SmartSymbol hierarchy, select the SmartSymbol that you want to import, and then click OK.

   If you already have elements on the canvas, a dialog box appears prompting if you want to replace the existing elements. Click:

   • Yes if you want to delete the existing elements and import the SmartSymbol on an empty canvas.

   • No if you want to keep the existing elements and import the SmartSymbol.

9. If the SmartSymbol contains fonts that are currently not installed on the operating system, the Edit Font Mapping dialog box appears.

   You can click Continue to accept the suggested font mapping, or change the font mapping for each individual font. To do this:

   1. Click the font name in the Mapped Font column. A browse button appears.

   2. Click the browse button. The Supported Font Selection dialog box appears.

   3. Select a font from the list and click OK. The selected font appears in the Mapped Font column.

   4. Repeat the steps for any other font you want to map to another font.

      Note: If you want to save the mapping for the next time you import a SmartSymbol, check Save mapping.

10. The SmartSymbol is imported and appears on the canvas.
