Merging diagrams
You can merge a diagram into another diagram of the same type.
 |
When you merge two diagrams, Modeler deletes the source diagram after the merge.
|
For most diagrams, the diagram items in the diagram that was merged will appear in the target diagram, placed in the same position. After merging a diagram, you typically have to tidy up the target diagram.
If a textual property has different values for the source and destination items, the destination value takes precedence. If a textual property has a value on only the source or destination item, that value will be set on the destination item after the merge.
