Adding the Extended Object and Link Tools to the Palette

The tools for creating extended objects and extended links do not appear by default in the palette of models other than the free model.

Note:

There is no tool for creating extended sub-objects in the diagram, as extended sub-objects can only be created in the property sheet of their parent object (see Extended Collections and Compositions (Profile)).

  1. Select Tools > Customize Toolbars to open the Toolbars dialog box.
  2. Select the Palette check box in the toolbars list and click the Customize button to display the Customize Toolbars window.
  3. Select the Graphical Tools category and drag the tools corresponding to the extended object or the extended link to the palette of your model, and release the mouse button.

    The tools appear in the palette of your model.

  4. Click Close in each of the dialog boxes.
