Hi,

Yes you can use the Cube as a Source to the transformers but not directly.For this first you need to import the Cube(.mdc cube) into your Framework Model,then you can use this model/Package from Framework model as a source to your Transformer for creating your child Cube.

Let me know if this helps.

Thanks,
Hitesh

You can also create a child cube from the same model without having to create another model using the parent cube.
