The following table describes the results of searching for a study object in the Libraries Browser and then adding it to a library or study.
Note: In the following sections, the library or study that contains the study object is the source location. The library or study to which you are adding a study object is the target location.
Results of adding a study object to a study or library from the Libraries Browser
Process | Results of adding the study object |
---|---|
Library to library (The study object is in a library, and you are adding the study object to a library.) | You are prompted to choose one:
|
Library to study (The study object is in a library, and you are adding the study object to a study.) or Study to library (The study object is in a study, and you are adding the study object to a library.) | Copies of the study object and its children are created in the target location. If you change a study object in either the target or original location, the study object in the other location is not updated. Because two study objects in a study cannot have the same RefName, the Central Designer application renames study objects in a study when you:
When a study object is renamed, it is appended with "_1" (or similar). Note: Study object names in a library might not be unique. Additionally, a study object can appear in multiple places in a study if it is copied using the Copy > Link option. Note: If you drag and drop a study object that is mapped to a data series, and the study object already exists in the library, the database contains a data point for the study object, and the drop operation reuses that data point as is. The application warns you that the drag and drop operation is not supported. If you continue, any data mappings in the dropped study object that are different from the data mappings that are associated with the study object that already exists in the library are removed. |
Note: You cannot have duplicate RefNames in a study. Duplicate RefNames are allowed in a library with the following exceptions:
Note: A linked item can appear on two forms in the same study event.
