About Referencing Elements Into Constructs

There are several ways to reference an element into a construct:

If you want to… Then…
create a link from the element to the construct attach an element as an external reference. Any changes to the referenced element are displayed in the construct when it is opened or refreshed.
create a link from the element to the construct overlay an element as an external reference. An overlaid reference is not included when the construct is attached or overlaid as a reference to a view.
cut off the link between the element and the construct insert an element as a block reference. The inserted element is converted to a block and is not updated when the reference element is changed. You can, however, edit the block in the construct.
