Change embedded graphics

After you embed a graphic, you can change its size, orientation or transparency. You can add a limited set of animations to the graphic, such as:

• Visibility

• Blink

• Horizontal and vertical location

• Width and height

• Orientation

• Disable

• Touch Pushbuttons (Discrete Value, Action, Show Window, and Hide Window)

You can configure its public custom properties, if any exist.

You cannot:

• Change the graphic definition of the embedded graphic from within the hosting graphic.

• Embed a graphic contained in an object created in your HMI/SCADA software into a graphic that is contained in the Industrial Graphic Editor.

• Create circular references. A circular reference occurs when one graphic (Graphic A) has embedded within it another graphic (Graphic B) that has embedded within it a graphic that directly or indirect references back to the first graphic (Graphic A).

You can, however, change the embedded graphic by changing its source graphic. The changes you make propagate to the embedded graphic.
