Creating a Link Object from the Palette

Link objects, such as messages (in an OOM), or references (in a PDM) are drawn between two ordinary objects in the diagram:

  1. Click a link object creation tool in the Palette and note how the pointer takes on the form of the selected link object.
  2. Click and hold inside an ordinary object, and then drag the pointer to inside a second object. The link object is created when you release the mouse button. Note that an entry for the link is displayed in the Browser.
  3. Do the same again to link two other objects or right-click anywhere to release the object creation tool and return to the pointer tool.
