Diagrams and Symbols

The majority of PowerDesigner models contain diagrams, in which your model objects are represented by symbols.

• Diagrams
  A diagram is a graphical view of a model or a package. All models and packages have at least one diagram.
• Dependency Matrices
  You can create dependency matrices to review and create links between any kind of objects. You can create an individual matrix from the Browser or define a matrix in a resource file for reuse.
• Manipulating Symbols
  You can modify the display of individual symbols in a model including object symbols, links, graphic shapes, and lines.
• Importing and Exporting Model Graphics
  You can import graphics to and export graphics from your PowerDesigner models.
