Binds and Links
A dynamic graphic object can be bound to, and thus controlled by, Power Operation server variables (signals). When the signal changes, the behavior or appearance of the object changes dynamically.
Similarly, you can link a graphic object to other database objects or Server pages by using a Link property to define a target.
Binds and links are created by using the Bind or Link elements of the graphic object. Binds and links defined for a graphic are displayed in the Binds and Links pane. Although you have to do the physical binding and linking in the Graphics Editor Binding pane, the Binds and Links pane gives you a useful overview.
When you select binds or links, the different panes highlight the selected elements, making them easy to locate. The binds and links remain selected even if you toggle between panes.
You can test bindings in the Graphics Editor in Preview mode, by manually entering test values for the binding to test the effect of the rules for a binding. For more information, see the Testing a Graphic section.
