Chapter 8 Shortcuts and Object Replications

Changing the target object

You can change the target object that is referenced by the shortcut.

You may need to do this if the original target object or model has been deleted, and the shortcut status is, consequently, Not Found.

In this case, you can either delete the shortcut or select a new target object. The new target must be of the same object type, and cannot already be referenced by another shortcut in the same package.

Steps To change the target object:

  1. Open the shortcut property sheet.
  2. Click the Change Target Object button in the bottom left corner of the shortcut property sheet to open an object selection dialog box.
  3. Browse to the appropriate package and select a new target object.
  4. Click OK to return to the shortcut property sheet.

    The new target object is displayed in the Name box and the shortcut status is changed to Opened.
  5. Click OK to return to the model diagram.

Note   Changing the target object from the List of Shortcuts
You can also change the target object of a shortcut by opening the List of Shortcuts, selecting a shortcut and clicking the Change Target Object tool.
