An item can link to one or more child items. Each child item can itself be a parent of other child items, creating item structure.
An item always appears independently in exactly one item folder even when its primary role is as a child of another item. As a result:
- Using Cut and Paste to create an item link retains the original item.
- Using Create Item from File or Generate Items to create item structure automatically from an assembly produces independent items in the folder corresponding to each child item created.
