You create a single element reference to establish a hierarchical relationship between two elements.
-
In the Elements browser, click the element that you want to reference and drag it to the appropriate parent element.
-
In the Choose Reference Type window, select the reference type.
If you are not sure what reference type you want, you probably want the default reference type, parent-child. See Understand reference types for more information.
-
Click OK.
The referenced elements are displayed in the browser. The referenced element icon
indicates that they are references.
