Linked Replicas

Linked Replica Wizard

Linked Replica Wizard

  • Activate the Plots window then select Manage ribbon | Insert | Sheet | Custom then select Linked Replica from the Plot Item Library.

The linked replica wizard will enable you, by logical steps, to create one or more linked replicas of a chosen object within the current document. The wizard is intelligent in so far as it will skip irrelevant steps such as asking about items in the clipboard if the clipboard is empty.
