Collapsing and Decomposing Diagrams


You can create new high level and low level diagrams of your original diagrams. The topics discussed are:

Collapsing a Diagram

You can collapse the selected instance axes in a diagram to get an overview of the diagram.

  1. Select two or more instance axes.
  2. Select Collapse from the Edit menu.
    Two diagrams are created from the original diagram. One displaying the collapsed instances and one displaying the collapsed diagram.

See Expand/Collapse for more information.

Decomposing a Diagram

You can create a new diagram of a segment of the original diagram.

  1. Select an instance axis.
  2. Select Decompose from the Edit menu. A dialog is opened.
  3. Enter or change the name of the decomposed instance and click OK.
    The instance in the original diagram will be marked as decomposed. A decomposed diagram is created and it is displayed in the Organizer.

See Decompose for more information.
