Create Elements

Example:

Notes:

• If you have defined a template element in the Templates package, Enterprise Architect applies the characteristics of that template to each new element you create of that type
• If you are creating several elements of one type, after creating the first just press (Shift+F3) or (Ctrl) + click to create the next element of that type
• Be aware that once you have created elements, you can re-use them by dragging them from the Project Browser and dropping them onto your diagrams
• Sometimes it is useful to add elements to a package, without a diagrammatic representation; this can be accomplished via the Project Browser and is explained in the topic - Add Elements Directly to a Package
