Opening a Diagram |
To open a diagram, double-click on the diagram name in the Project Browser; you can open further diagrams in the same way. You can also open a diagram from within an already-open diagram by clicking on either hyperlinks or elements that contain other diagrams. You can open many diagrams, but you can view only one at a time.

Diagram View |
Use the Diagram View to build model relationships and elements. Within the diagram, you can create new elements, drag in existing elements and generally organize the elements and relationships. Most work on elements is carried out in the Diagram View, so understanding how it works and how to manipulate elements is essential; use the example project supplied with Enterprise Architect to explore the capabilities and behavior of the Diagram View.
