Chapter 10 Managing Shortcuts


Understanding the display of a shortcut symbol

In a diagram, the symbol of a shortcut is identical to the symbol of its target object. The shortcut symbol displays the name and the visible properties of the target object. The small icon in the lower left corner of the symbol indicates that the symbol is a shortcut.


The display of shortcut symbols can change according to the state of the target model:

Target model Description Default display Symbol
Opened Shortcut symbols displays target object name, and target object attributes
Closed Simplified shortcut symbol with name, identical size but no attributes
