Linking connects drawings together by allowing any drawing object to be a LinkTo Button . When a LinkTo Button is defined, it will be associated with any other drawing in the Project and any view into that drawing. Then, when it is clicked, the window containing the specified drawing will appear.
Drawings become active in that they tie diverse information together.
Object details will be displayed with a simple click of the mouse and one drawing can act as a visual index into other drawings. I n the example below, the Organization Chart is linked to the picture of the employee. D ots on a map can be used to indicate the location of a company's office space. When a location dot is clicked, Aperture will open a drawing that shows its details. L inkTo Buttons can also be defined so that they run specific reports.
