Creating new objects using inheritance
You use the Inherit From Object dialog box to create a new
window, user object, or menu using inheritance.
To create a new object using inheritance:
-
Click the Inherit button in the PowerBar,
or select File>Inherit from the menu. -
In the Inherit From Object dialog box, select
the object type (menu, user object, or window) from the Objects
of Type drop-down list. Then select the target as well as the library
or libraries you want to look in. Finally select the object from
which you want to inherit the new object.
Displaying objects from many libraries To find an object more easily, you can select more than one
library in the Libraries list. Use Ctrl+Click to toggle
selected libraries and Shift+Click to select a range. -
Click OK.
The new object, which is a descendant of the object you chose
to inherit from, opens in the appropriate painter.
