For a Button push button object, the LinkAnimation property determines whether the
reference object uses the press, release, or repeat actions set up for the base object. This is
true when you select either Link with expressions or Link without expressions.
LinkConnections
The LinkConnections property determines whether the reference object uses the
connections set up for its base object.
Set up the LinkConnections property of the reference object by selecting:
 True , to use the connections assigned to the base object.
 False , to set up connections for the reference object separately.
LinkSize
The LinkSize property determines whether the reference object uses the height and width
set up for its base object.
Set up the LinkSize property of the reference object by selecting:
 True , to use the height and width set up for the base object.
 False , to set up the height and width of the reference object separately.
LinkToolTipText
The LinkToolTipText property specifies whether the reference object will use the tooltip
text assigned to the base object.
Set up the LinkToolTipText property of the reference object by selecting:
 True , to use the base object's tooltip text. The tooltip property on the reference object
will be read-only, and cannot be edited. This is the default.
 False , to allow the tooltip property in the reference object to be edited. Any change
made to the tooltip text on the reference object will not be reflected on the base object.
Any change made to this property on the base object will not be reflected on the
reference object.
In FactoryTalk View Site Edition, a reference object that is a tag label, trend, or Button push
button with an action other than Command, always uses the connections assigned to its base
object. You cannot set up connections for these reference objects separately.
If you attempt to resize a reference object with its LinkSize property set to True, the object will
snap back to its original size.
