Inherit Properties from Design Part to Design Object

Explanation

This activity is used to inherit terminals and wires defined on a design part to the design object to which it is connected. The condition for inheriting properties from the design part to design object could be enabled during the class configuration. In that case, properties are automatically inherited when the initial connection between design part and design object is established. Otherwise a manual inheritance option could be called to do the job. This can be performed in Design Object/s page by using Inherit Properties from Design Part sub command.

Prerequisites

A design part with terminals and wires should be connected to the design object.

System Effects

Depending on the property inheritance setting selected:

• Design object terminals and/or wires will be retained and those on the connected design part can be inherited, if the Keep option was selected.
• Design object terminals and/or wires will be updated with missing information, if any, from those on the connected design part, if the Update option was selected.
• Design object terminals and/or wires will be replaced with those on the design part, if the Replace option was selected.
