2.3.2.4 Attach/Detach

The Attach option enables you to attach one or more object to another object. If several objects are attached together, they can be moved together. The Detach option breaks the connection between attached objects.

1. Select object(s) to be attached either in the Graphic Viewer or in one of the trees.
2. Open the Attach dialog box using one of the following steps:
   • Select Layout > Attach from the menu bar,
   • Right-click and select Attach from the context menu,
   • Click the Attach button on the toolbar.
3. The Attach dialog box is displayed with the name(s) of the selected object(s) in the Attach Objects field.
4. Specify the type of the attachment:
   • One Way: The attached objects can be moved independently. If you move the object to which they are attached, all of the objects will move together.
   • Two Way: If you move one of the object, all other objects will move together.
5. Click in the To Object field and select the object to be attached to either in the Graphic Viewer or in one of the trees and click OK.

The objects remain attached until you detach them. You can always see which objects are attached to an object from its Properties window.
