Duplicating an Entry in the Local Components Tab

When you convert a subsystem into a shared subsystem or generate a custom component, a subsystem or custom component definition entry appears in the Components palette of the Local Components tab ( ). You can duplicate the entry within the Local Components tab and then drag the new subsystem or custom component definition icon into your model. You can then edit the shared subsystem or custom component without affecting other subsystems or custom components because the new shared subsystem or custom component is not linked to the original definition.

For more information about editing and working with shared subsystems, see Creating Subsystem Definitions in Chapter 2 of the MapleSim User's Guide.
