Associated Files
An element can be linked to files held in the database, using the Files tab of the element's Properties dialog.
Note: |
Linked files are a good way to link elements to additional documentation and/or source code. |
You can also insert hyperlinks in diagrams to other files, and launch them directly from the diagram. This is an alternative method to that described here.
