Diagrams

You can visualize your model in an autogenerated and editable diagram. To edit a diagram, click the pen icon in the top right corner. With EntryScape 3.18, new and improved editing functionality makes it easier to customize diagrams.

Diagram example

Edit diagram

The diagram opens in edit mode. The left panel shows your classes, forms, and relations in a tree view panel where you can click to show or hide parts of the diagram. If you want to see your diagram in fullscreen, you can hide or show the tree view panel by clicking on the three lines at the top left.

Implicit classes are classes that are outside of the model, but are referred to by classes or properties in the model.

Diagram example

You can zoom in and out or re-center your diagram content with the zoom buttons at the top.
