Program Interface - What's Where?

• System menu (1)

  The system menu can be found top left in the application's window title.

  The toolbar for quick access can be found on the right-hand side next to the system menu as standard but can also be moved to below the ribbon. It enables individual customization of general functions which you always need to access.

• Status bar with zoom settings (2)

  You can see at a glance to the left in the status bar which model server and model you are logged-in to, with which user and with which role.

  The selected element's namespace is shown in the middle.

  If a diagram or diagram element is selected, handy elements for displaying diagrams are shown to the right in the status bar.

  • icon (entire diagram: the entire diagram is shown.)

  • icon (original size: zoom to 100%)

  • Zoom controller with percentage gage for direct zoom selection and plus and minus icons for incremental size alterations.

You can edit diagrams, tables and specifications in the document area (4). You can add notes to diagram elements here.

• Relationships between the model elements are modeled in the diagram editor.

• The table editor is used for quickly editing related data.

• Specification texts describe model elements within a certain aspect.

• You can use [F11] to switch between full screen mode of the document area and back at any time.

Tool windows (5-9) provide specific structures and functions for navigating in the model, getting information about the model and its elements and so that you can work with the model elements.
