To create a relation map

  1. Select an element, for which you need to create the relation map. This element is the context of the relation map.
  2. Do one of the following:
  • From the main menu, select Diagrams > Create Diagram. Type “rel” and press Enter.
  • On the main toolbars, click the Create Diagram button. Type “rel” and press Enter.
  • Press Ctrl+N. Type “rel” and press Enter.
  • On the Analyze menu, click Create Relation Map.
  • Right-click the element and from the shortcut menu select Create Diagram >Analysis Diagrams > Relation Map.
  • Right-click the element and from the shortcut menu select Related Elements >Create Relation Map.

The newly created relation map opens on the right side of the application window.

  • The context of the relation map automatically becomes the owner of it when using any of the last two approaches.
  • When using other approaches, you can specify another element as the owner.
  • The actions relevant for diagrams are valid for relation maps as well.
