Framework architects can create one or more framework diagrams to guide their modeling teams through building a project. You can specify actions for each node in the framework diagram that control what kind of document (model, diagram, model objects list etc.) must be attached to them.
- Right-click a project in the Browser, and select to open the framework diagram property sheet.
- Enter a name for the framework diagram on the General tab, and click OK to close the property sheet.
- Click the Node tool in the Toolbox, click in the diagram, and create an appropriate number of framework diagram nodes.
- Click the Link tool in the Toolbox, click in the diagram, and create an appropriate number of framework diagram links between the nodes to express connections between them.
- [optional] Decompose one or more nodes to analyze them in more detail (see Decomposing a Framework Node).
- Create actions for each node to specify the types of documents that your modelers can attach to the node (see Specifying Framework Node and Cell Actions).
- [optional] Select to open the Project Template Wizard, and convert the project containing your framework diagrams into a template to allow it to be reused as the basis for future projects (seeProject and Framework Templates).
