To select an alternate instance
-
Select the embedded graphic on the canvas.

On the Edit menu, point to Embedded Symbol, and then click Select Alternate Instance. Your HMI's attribute/tag browser appears with a list of all instances that contain the same graphic.

Select an instance and click OK. All internal references of the embedded graphic update to point at the alternate instance. The name of the embedded graphic updates to reflect that it is pointing at a different instance.
