Embed graphics within graphics

You can embed graphics into other graphics. This lets you split your visualization into modules and re-use already defined graphics. For example, you can create a valve graphic and embed it multiple times into a tank graphic.

When you embed a graphic into another graphic, you are creating a link to the original graphic. Any changes to the original graphic are propagated to all embedded instances.

You can:

• Embed a graphic within another graphic.

• Edit an embedded graphic.

• Restore an embedded graphic to the original size of its source graphic.

• Convert the embedded graphic to a graphic.

• Detect the source of an embedded graphic.

• Edit the source of an embedded graphic.

• Override the custom properties of the source graphic.

• Control the size propagation of an embedded graphic.

• Select an alternate or same graphic of an alternate object instance as source.

• Edit the object that contains the source graphic.

• Create a new instance of the object that contains the source graphic.
