One or more animations configured to perform a specific task or to represent a particular graphic element (e.g. a pump) can be recorded in a Symbol, to be stored and reused reducing development time.

A symbol retains the properties of static and animation related to each constituent element. It is therefore possible, at the time of creation, to define once and for all the properties of the objects, then substituting any expressions related to the animation when inserting the symbol.


For a symbol is also possible to associate a script which makes it easy to customize the configuration. The symbols with the script are called Intelligent Symbols.

X Vision has a rich library of pre-made symbols, which can be freely modified or enriched with new symbols. Many of the provided symbols are Intelligent Symbols. The symbols are stored in the Symbols folder and are organized in Categories. Each category consists of a folder containing the symbols files associated with the category itself.
