Creating topic diagrams from models

In UML models, you can create a topic diagram by defining the parameters of a query. In the query, you can specify which elements or relationships that you want to display in the diagram.

You must have a diagram open in the diagram editor.

To create a topic diagram:
  1. To specify the context element for the topic query, in the diagram editor, right-click a diagram element; then click Visualize > In Topic Diagram.
  2. In the Topic Wizard, on the Select a Container page, specify a location and file name and click Next.
  3. On the Topics page, click a topic to query and click Finish.
Tip: To further explore a diagram element, right-click the element; then click Visualize > Explore in Browse Diagram.
