Graphical Hierarchies in SWCs

Note

This topic applies only to SWCs specified as block diagrams.

To organize complex diagrams more clearly, you can group parts of a diagram into a hierarchy block, which is then only visible as a symbol on the top level of the diagram. Whether any diagram item is inside a hierarchy block or not, does not in any way affect its functionality, hierarchies serve only for graphical structuring. Hierarchies can be nested so that hierarchy blocks can contain other hierarchy blocks.
