Creating a New Diagram

  1. Go to the Outline tab.
  2. Do one of the following:

    • In the Insert menu, point to Diagram and select Public or Private.
    • In the context menu, point to Add Diagram and select Public or Private.

    A new public or private diagram is added in the Outline tab. The name of the new diagram is selected automatically.

  3. Type in a name and press <Enter>.

    You can also rename the diagram later via Rename in the context menu of the respective diagram or pressing <F2>.

  4. Add the runnables and methods necessary to specify the functionality of the diagram.

In the software component editor, you work on one diagram at a time. If a software component contains more than one diagram, you can switch between diagrams by loading another diagram into the drawing area.
