Add Profile Objects to a Diagram

After a technology has been imported into your project, the profiled objects (elements and connectors) and features (attributes and operations) are available from the technology pages of the Diagram Toolbox. The way in which you add the Profile objects to a diagram is no different from the way in which you use the standard UML objects on the system.
