Mimics can contain embedded objects such as Trends, Lists, and other Mimics. Each embedded object provides access to many of the same features as the original version.
Example:
A Mimic named 'River Level and Flow' contains several control buttons. When selected, these buttons allow the user to override points.
The 'River Level and Flow' Mimic is embedded on another Mimic named 'Overview'. Users can select the control buttons on the embedded version of the 'River Level and Flow' Mimic in the same way as if the users had selected the buttons on the original 'River Level and Flow' Mimic.
Embedded Trends on Mimics provide a subset of the features that are available on pre-configured Trends. You typically click (rather than right-click) on the main display area of an Embedded Trend in order to access that Trend's menu options. Embedded Trends do not support menu option access from the Trend Key. If access from Mimics to Trends with such menu options is required, consider configuring your Mimics to display the Trends in Inset Windows, for example, rather than as Embedded Trends.
