11.7.10 Breaking a connection
A graphic figure which has been added as a symbol to the
symbol library, or a symbol which has been inserted into a
picture can be moved, enlarged/shrunk, mirror-imaged,
rotated and compressed/expanded. However, it is not
possible to change its line width and colour, or to change
only parts of the symbol.
If the latter is mandatory, the connection to the symbol li-
brary must be broken:
Mark the symbol in the Picture Editor, then
IMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM M;
: :
"Picture Editor" window
: :
Select "Symbols"
: :
Select "Break Apart"
: :
HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM M<
The figure in question now no longer has a connection to
the symbol library and, as such, cannot be used for the
updating mode "Symbol Change."
11.7.11 Changing symbols
To change a symbol from the symbol library, proceed as
follows:
- Insert the symbol into a picture.
- Delete the symbol in the library.
- Interrupt the symbolîlibrary connection (see above).
(The symbol has now been broken apart into a number
of "normal" graphic figures.)
- Make the desired changes.
- Regroup the graphic figures.
- Add the newly combined graphic figure again to the
symbol library.
