This will open a dialog box where you can enter the name of the new object and select which attributes and values you want to inherit from the existing object. Once you have entered all the necessary information, click “OK” to create the new object. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When using the inherit feature, it is important to remember that any changes made to the existing object will be inherited by any objects created using it. Therefore, it is important to make sure that any changes made are appropriate for all objects created using this feature.
