In
sequence diagrams, partitions in activity diagrams, and regions in state machine
diagrams, any changes that you make to the UML model are reflected in their
corresponding diagrams by default. Conversely, any changes that you make to
the diagrams are reflected in the model. You can set the canonical property
to
false so that changes to the model are not synchronized
with the diagram.
Before you begin
You must have an activity diagram, a sequence
diagram, or a state machine diagram open in the
Modeling perspective.
