Graphical modeling overview
In addition to the specific diagram types provided, you can use Modeler to develop a General Graphics Diagram.
General Graphics Diagrams can be used to create different diagram types, which are not otherwise supported in Modeler. For example you can use the features on a General Graphics Diagram to represent a Data Flow Diagram.
General Graphics Diagrams consist of nodes (shapes) and flows (connections), which can be linked to dictionary items.

Because General Graphics Diagrams do not support a recognized modeling method you cannot perform a consistency check.
