Introduction

At some point in the development process, a business engineer might want to copy a module. This is most likely the case with interaction modules, therefore the functionality to copy modules is only available for modules of this type. To demonstrate this functionality, the example project shown below is used. Only interaction module are relevant.

...

When Copy module is pressed, the following dialogue appears:

UI Text Box

New screenprint will be available after new Copy module dialog.

Type in the new name (name, this name has to be unique within the project of course) and choose whether the module is implementation . Choose whether the module is implementation or not. By default each copied module is an implementation module, regardless of the fact whether the source module is an implementation module or not.

The radio button Base that lets you choose between linking the new module to a lower module and adding elements from lower modules. This will be discussed in the next two chapters.

...

The radio button Base has two options. When the option Link to base module is chosen, the copied module will be linked to the same module that the original module was linked to.

To illustrate what happens when a copied module is linked, view the following example:
