Inheriting Images from Template
When adding Images to Items and Templates, there are certain restrictions on when they will automatically inherit to occurrences and template derivations. The table below explains when images will be inherited or can be added:
Images for Items and Derived Templates
Item Occurrences | Child Items | Derived Templates | |
|---|---|---|---|
Images automatically inherited | ✖️ Images are not inherited as multiple occurrences can exist and are likely to be unique. For example, at the occurrence level you may want to show a picture of a chair with each occurrence having a different color. | ✔️ Images are inherited because a child item becomes a unique item. Child items maintain a connection to the parent item. | ✔️ Images are inherited as a derived template maintains a connection to the original template |
