Working with the favorites pane
The Favorites pane allows you to quickly access items and diagrams that you use regularly.
You can add any item or diagram to the Favorites pane and then use that item's or diagram's context menu commands as you would anywhere else in Modeler. In addition, you can use the items and diagrams in the Favorites pane for performing drag-and-drop operations in Modeler.
Each Modeler user has their own individual Favorites pane, so other users do not see the items and diagrams you have added to your Favorites pane. The Favorites pane is model-specific and is used for all versions of a model.
You can export the content of your Favorites pane so that other users can import your favorites list. Alternatively, you can create different favorites lists and import the favorites list that is appropriate for the work you are doing at any given time. When you import a favorites list, you are given the option to merge or replace that list with any items that are currently in your Favorites pane. If you import a favorite lists that includes items that no longer exist in the model, those items are ignored.
