The idea is to be able to project an area of the content of a source page onto another destination page.And when changes are made in that area of the source page, these are automatically reflected on the destination page, without the need to copy and paste the changes.Perhaps the target projection could be displayed as a bitmap image, so no changes could be made to it, but elements could be added to it on the target page.
This would serve to show more detailed areas of an illustration on another page.Or with changes, allowing several versions of the same illustration or design.
Thank you.

La idea es poer proyectar un area, del contenido de una página origen, en otra página destino.Y cuando se realicen cambios en ese area de la página origen, estos se vean reflejados automáticamente en la página destino, sin necesidad de estar copiando y pegando los cambios.Quizá la proyección destino, podría mostrarse como una imagen de mapa de bits, así no se podrían hacer cambios en ella, pero sí añadir elementos sobre ella en la página destino.
Esto serviría, para poder mostar areas más detalladas de una ilustración, en otra página.O con cambios, permitiendo varias versiones de una misma ilustración o diseño.
Gracias.
Not in CorelDraw no. It has the ability to have linked images, but not linked vector or mixed files. I use Affinity Publisher for this , but that requires you create your content in other applications. So the scenario where I used it was for a report containing Coreldraw drawings, text and images. These can all be linked so that changes to the originals are reflected in the parent document.
And to be completely honest, linked images in CorelDraw up to CDGS2018 did not work well. I would never use the application for that type of document now, considering the price Affinity Publisher is vastly superior.
I totally agree with you @hywelharris. The link feature in Coreldraw is not up to scratch.
What the OP can try is to create symbols from his artwork. This method should work in Coreldraw.
The new symbols are in my opinion better than clones.
But those created symbols are not updated automatically.Which would be the main feature of this feature.
Thank you
I tested this in the 2023 subscription version (I believe) and the pages feature and symbol docker allowed you to utilize symbols and change them like clones in non subscription versions.
