Populating diagrams with database elements

In UML visualization, you can populate open IDEF1X (Integration Definition for Information Modeling) and IE (Information Engineering) notation diagrams and Unified Modeling Language (UML) class diagrams with data objects of existing database applications.

You can also populate diagrams by showing data objects that are related to data objects in open diagrams.

Populating IDEF1X notation diagrams
In UML visualization, you can populate open IDEF1X (Integration Definition for Information Modeling) notation diagrams with data objects from existing database applications.

Populating IE notation diagrams
In UML visualization, you can populate open IE (Information Engineering) notation diagrams with data objects from existing database applications.

Populating database class diagrams
In UML visualization, you can populate open Unified Modeling Language (UML) class diagrams with data objects from existing database applications.

Populating diagrams with related data objects
In UML visualization, you can populate a database diagram with data objects that have specific relations to the selected data objects.

Showing related data relationships
In UML visualization, you can use the relationship handles to show specific data relationships that are related to selected data objects in a class diagram.
