Working in Diagram Editors
When modeling structures or flows for software development in modeling, a diagram (taken from the Greek diagramma = geometric figure) represents certain aspects of a model. This is why they use a special store of elements which can be displayed (nodes and edges) that are defined by methods and restricted by concrete configuration.

A diagram is write protected or opened for editing, depending on the Open Documents Read-Only option.
The following functions are worth taking note of:
- Fast access to permitted elements and classifications via the mini toolbar
- Fast access to permitted connections to other elements via the carousel
- Drag-and-drop with intelligent support for the adjustment of properties
- Support for the positioning of diagram elements using temporary guide lines
- Alternative keyboard commands in diagrams for users with restricted motor skills
