Generated automatically when you promote a Composite Failure Tool object. A child object is automatically created and is a copy of the promoted Composite Failure Tool that you can then modify using the Worksheet. In addition, when promoted, the Defined By property of the Composite Failure Tool's Reference category automatically changes to the setting Composite Failure Criteria Definitions. These actions also cause the application to display the Composite Failure Criteria property in the Composite Failure Tool Reference category. The Composite Failure Criteria property provides a drop-down list of available child objects of the Composite Failure Criteria Definitions object, if available.
Additional child objects can be added for additional Composite Failure Tool objects. The original Composite Failure Tool objects become read-only but may be changed by changing the Defined By property to . The goal of this feature is to enable you to configure your own combinations of failure criteria.
