1. | Node identifier is arbitrary; but can not be the same as an existing NODE identifier. |
2. | Common nodes may be defined with more than one block. |
3. | Common node identifiers are arbitrary and can not be the same as a NODE. |
4. | The CNODE will be merged to the nearest selected NODE or CNODE. |
5. | The CNODE merging will be done after each model transformation (/TRANSFORM). |
6. | In case a CNODE cannot be merged to any NODE or CNODE, it will be replaced by NODE. |
