Add existing assets to the diagram

When you design a diagram, you will typically add diagram items such as applications and components that exist in the repository to the diagram. The diagram items that you can add to the diagram are displayed in the left sidebar in the diagramming tool. There two easy methods to do add assets to the diagram:

Click the class icon in the toolbox and click in the diagram workspace to place the object.The class icon in the toolbox will display a blue bar indicating it is selected and the mouse pointer will show a + symbol to indicate that something is being created. When you click in the diagram workspace, the relevant editor or selector will open so that you can complete creating the asset.
Drag-and-drop the class icon to the diagram workspace.The class icon in the toolbox will display a blue bar indicating it is selected and the mouse pointer will show the class icon symbol as the user drags it. When you click in the diagram workspace, the relevant editor or selector will open so that you can complete creating the asset.

When you add a diagram item to the diagram, the focus will be on it and it will be selected. If you add multiple assets at once, they will all be selected. Click anywhere in the canvas area to clear the selection. Now you can move and edit any individual diagram item.
If information flows already exist between applications that you add to the diagram, the information flows will be automatically displayed as arrows. The arrow will start with the application that is the source of the information flow and point to the target of the information flow.
To change the size of the diagram item, click it to display its handles. Drag any handle to the appropriate size.
To move a diagram item in the diagram, click to select it and then drag it to another location on the canvas.
To edit the basic attributes of an asset in the diagram, right-click the diagram item and select Semantic Actions > Open Editor. If you have the relevant access permission, the editor will open and you can edit the asset.
