Package Header Support for All Diagrams

Package Header was a feature for creating a package to hold models within a diagram in a fast and direct way. With Package Header, you just need to type in the package name inside the header field of the diagram, a package model will then be created, and the models inside the diagram will be included in the package automatically.

In the previous release, package header was supported by Class Diagram, Package Diagram, ORM Diagram and EJB Diagram. Starting from this release, package header is available for other diagram types as well.

Working with Package Header

Animated Demo

  1. For diagrams other than Class Diagram, Package Diagram, Package Diagram and ORM Diagram, package header is hidden by default. To show the package header, right-click on the diagram and select Presentation Options > Show Package Header from the popup menu.

  2. Enter the package name inside the package header field. A package model with this name will be produced to hold the shapes inside the diagram.

Check the diagram against the Model Tree. You will find that a package is created, with the name specified, and the models inside the diagram are included in the package.
