Inserting links

The following option, within the "Drawing elements" section of the top toolbar in the sheet editor, lets you insert a link to one sheet within another.

Link

This option inserts links that display the content of one sheet within another.

To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Clicking on this option opens a window where you can "Select the sheet to insert". Here, a list appears showing the name of the "Model" displayed on each sheet, the "Name" of the sheet and the "Group" to which it belongs, as well as an indication of whether it is already "Linked to the current sheet". On the right-hand side, a "Preview" of the sheet is displayed.
  2. After selecting the desired sheet and clicking "Accept", move the mouse to position the link on the work area and left-click to insert it at the desired location.
  3. The sheet selection window reopens automatically so that you can add further links to the same sheet in succession. This allows you to create compositions that include, for example, a graphical representation of an assembly and its parts on the same sheet, or a view of the model alongside details of different connections.
  4. When you have finished, close the sheet selection window to complete the operation.

When you link content, any changes to the source sheet will be automatically updated on the sheet containing the link. Furthermore, if a link is edited, the program will automatically select the source sheet.
