Creating Derived Model

To create a derived model, follow these steps:

  • With the source model opened, select Derive from the create dropdown menu

  • Select the top-level component in the browser tree to include the entire model

  • Select OK in the Derive command popup to complete the creation

You can now run MB on this derived model. You can save this model if you wish, but that is not necessary since it can easily be recreated. If you make changes to the source model, the symbol out_of_date will indicate that you are out-of-date. Click the symbol to refresh the derived model.
