Converting a Local Object into a Global Object

To convert a local object into a global object:

  1. Click a local object (child element or attribute) in the Browser or the diagram.
  2. Drag and drop the local object in the space just beneath the Diagram item or the model item. A thick horizontal line indicates that you can drop the object.
    Note:

    Select Tools > General Options to make sure that Move is the Default action of the Drag & Drop option.

    The new global object is displayed in a global objects category (one level beneath the model item).

    If the new global object does not appear in the diagram, select Symbol > Show Symbols and click the corresponding tab to select the object symbol.
