Linking Ports by Position

Linking Ports by Position

When you link by position, the Designer links the first output port to the first input port, the second output port to the second input port, and so forth. Use this option when you create transformations with related ports in the same order. Use the following options to link by position:
  • Autolink dialog box.
     To automatically link ports using the Autolink dialog box, click Layout > Autolink.
  • Autolink command.
     To link ports by selecting the ports in the workspace, click Layout > Autolink by Position.
