Setting ILM Display Preferences

PowerDesigner display preferences allow you to customize the format of object symbols, and the information that is displayed on them.

To set ILM display preferences, select Tools→Display Preferences or right-click the diagram background and select Display Preferences from the contextual menu.


To set display preferences for a particular object, select it under the Object View category. The following table provides an alphabetical list of the display preferences available. Note that each object supports only some of these preferences, and that the objects available to be customized in the Display Preferences window depend upon the current diagram type.
