In UML modeling, you can
nest nodes within nodes to represent the hardware and software components
in a system that contains other components.
Before you begin
A diagram must be open in the diagram
editor, and the diagram must contain at least two nodes. The Nested
Nodes compartment of the container node must be visible.
About this task
To nest a node in another node, in the diagram editor, click
one node and drag it into the Nested Node compartment of another node.
Results
As the following figure illustrates, a node named Node2
is displayed in the Nested Nodes Textual and Nested Nodes Graphical
compartments of another node, named Node1.
