If you open a display and drag an object elsewhere, the display is
permanently changed, regardless of whether you save it or simply close it.
Link a File to a Display
You can create a link from a ProcessBook display to an existing file. The
linked object appears in a rectangle within your display. It is updated
whenever the source file changes, unless you change the link setting from
Automatic to Manual.
You must be in Build mode to insert a linked object, however you may
move or resize linked objects in either Build or Run mode. You may also
edit the contents of a linked object, but you are actually editing the original
source file, not simply the image in the ProcessBook display.
1. Open the display.
2. In Build mode, click Insert > Object. The Insert Object dialog box
appears.
3. Select Create from File.
4. Click Browse. The Browse dialog box appears.
5. Browse and locate the file you want to embed and then click Open.
The file name appears in the File box.
If you want to display an icon rather than a graphic, select the Display
as Icon check box.
6. Select the Link check box.
7. Click OK. The object appears on your display.
8. Adjust the size and positioning of the object.
