Note As an alternative to importing single files from another location, you can import linked files from a Flare source project using a featured called "Global Project Linking." This is different than a simple import process, because in this case, the imported files remain linked to the source project. This lets you make future updates to those files in just one place—in the parent project. When you perform ongoing imports using your previous settings, Flare recognizes changes to the source files. Therefore, the new files can be brought over, replacing the outdated ones. See Global Project Linking—Importing Files From Other Projects.
