Note: The manufacturer catalog you are working with determines the availability of this feature. The way panel run elevations are created is also manufacturer-specific.
A dynamic panel-run elevation is logically connected to its plan-view parent so that if the parent configuration is modified, the elevation is also immediately modified to match the parent configuration. Linked elevations are a one-to-one relationship to their parent. Should the parent plan-view graphics of a linked elevation be erased, the elevation is also erased.
