Linking UML diagrams

You can create links between related diagrams in the same project or in different projects, so that you can navigate from an open diagram to other linked diagrams.

To link one diagram to another diagram:
  1. Open a diagram that you want to link to another diagram.
  2. In the Diagram Navigator view, locate the diagram that you want to create a link to and drag the diagram file to an empty space in the open diagram where you want to place a link icon.
  3. Release the mouse button.
A link, or a shortcut, is created between the two diagrams and a link icon appears in the open diagram. You can double-click the link icon to open the linked diagram in the diagram editor.
