Nesting a Viewsheet

To embed or nest one Viewsheet within another Viewsheet, follow these steps:

1. Create the Viewsheet that you wish to embed. (This is the Views­heet containing the common components that you wish to embed in other Viewsheets.)

2. Save this common Viewsheet to the Repository (under 'Global Viewsheet' or 'User Viewsheet', as desired.)

3. Open or create the host Viewsheet. (This is the Viewsheet within which the common Viewsheet will be embedded.)

4. Open the Asset panel on the left side of the Visual Composer to display the asset tree.

5. Drag and drop the common Viewsheet (saved in Step 2) from the Repository into the host Viewsheet.

The common Viewsheet is now embedded within the host Viewsheet, and all of the components marked 'Visible in External Viewsheets' within the common Viewsheet are displayed. To synchronize selection and input components within two (or more) Viewsheets, see Synchronizing Selection Elements and Input Elements.
