'Permanently' change an Element's Appearance

[Dorian Workman]

Can someone please remind me how to change an element's Appearance so that it changes in all Diagrams, and also is retained when adding the element to new diagrams?

Specifically, I am adding a custom jpeg to an Actor.

I've done it before but I can't remember how!

Thanks.

Use the Appearance | Alternate Image context menu option to set the image, then right-click on the element and select the Appearance | Default Appearance context menu option. The Default Appearance dialog displays, on which you setthe font, border, etc. for every instance of that element.

Does that work?

Yes!  Thanks Roy, much obliged.
