: Break Template Link
Break Template Link
Breaks the Origin Reference (ORRF) link between the Instance and the Master.
A Master template resides in the template library. When an Instance is created, the Master is copied and a reference back to it is held on the Instance, via the ORRF attribute, which allows any changes to the Master to be propagated to the Instances.
By default an Instance is locked, for example LOCK attribute = TRUE. The Instance can be unlocked and edited but any changes would be undone if any changes to the Master are propagated.
To prevent this, the ORRF attribute can be unset, breaking the link between the Instance and the Master.
A prompt message is displayed
