User Interface Guide
The Enterprise Architect Application Workspace provides a powerful and flexible analysis, modeling, design and construction environment. The workspace is built from familiar components, such as toolbars, docking windows, dialogs and menus. Together these elements provide a rich set of tools for working with diagrams, models, UML, source code, executing applications (debugging and visualization), rich text documents, collaborative tools, extension technologies and much more.
