Inherit Properties from Design Part to Design Object

Explanation

This activity is used to inherit terminals and wires defined on a design part to the design object to which it is connected. The condition for inheriting properties from the design part to design object could be enabled during the class configuration. In that case, properties are automatically inherited when the initial connection between design part and design object is established. Otherwise a manual inheritance option could be called to do the job.

Prerequisites

A design part with terminals and wires should be connected to the design object.
