LinkAnimation

The LinkAnimation property determines whether the reference object uses the animation
set up for its base object.

Set up the LinkAnimation property of the reference object by selecting:

Link with expressions

, to use the animation, including expressions, set up for the

base object.

Link without expressions

, to use the animation, excluding expressions, set up for

the base object. This means you can set up the expressions for the reference object
separately.

Do not link

, to set up animation and expressions for the reference object separately.

If you change the properties of a linked reference object, you might lose the original settings.

For example, if you change a reference object’s LinkConnections property from False to True,
any connections previously assigned for the reference object are deleted. To restore the original
connections, from the Edit menu, select Undo.
