Creating Network Maps
Type
This column indicates the source document’s type; if a link is
selected this will also display in the
Type
field.
Update
Indicates whether the appearance of the object in the map will
be automatically or manually updated to reflect changes to the
source document; if a link is selected, this will also be
indicated by the
Automatic
or
Manual
Update
radio buttons
at the bottom of the window.
To determine whether the object’s appearance will be updated automatically or manually:
1. Click to highlight the desired link object in the panel.
2. Click on the appropriate radio button option at the bottom of the window:
Automatic
or
Manual
:
If you select
Automatic
, the appearance of the link object in the map will be
updated each time the source document is updated and saved.
If you select
Manual
, you determine when to update the appearance of the
link by clicking on
Update Now
. Each time this button is clicked, the object’s
appearance will be revised to reflect the latest saved version of the source
document.
To open the source document for a link, so that you can edit its data:
1. Click to highlight the desired link object in the panel.
2. Click on
Open Source
. The source document will open in the application that
created it. When you close the source application window, you will be
returned directly to the map window.
To change a link’s reference to a source document, so that opening the object will link to a
newly specified file path or name (in case the source document was moved or renamed, or
if you simply want to reference a different document via the link):
1. Click to highlight the desired link object in the panel.
2. Click on
Change Source
. A Change Source window displays, in which you
can browse your directory tree to select a new file reference.
NOTE
Remember, the Update state of a link determines how it appears in the map — and does
not correspond to the version of the source document that is accessed via the linked
object. Opening the source document through the link will always open its last saved
version.
