Attach Subcircuit...
This command allows you to select an open design to attach as a subcircuit
to the selected device. When this command is selected, the following dia-
log will appear:
NOTE: This operation cannot be Undone!
Clicking the Attach button here will cause the following actions to be taken:
1) If the current design (i.e., the one containing the parent device) contains
other devices of the same type as the selected device, then a separate, tem-
porary type will be created for the selected device, as is done with the Push
Into command, above.
2) The logical linkage between the selected device and the new internal cir-
cuit will be completed. If any mismatch is detected between the port con-
nectors defined in the internal circuit and the pins on the parent device, you
will be warned.
3) The title of the internal circuit will be updated to reflect its position in
the master design.
4) The newly-attached internal circuit’s window will be brought to the
front. It is now considered an internal circuit that has been opened for edit-
