Creating embedded flows

In SysML notation, flows can be embedded in links. You can use this notation in object model diagrams.

Procedure

  1. Click the Flow button Flow button.
  2. Click the link to which you want the flow added.

Results

Once the flow is created, it has the same features as an ordinary flow element, representing the flow of data between the two objects that are linked. Visually, the flow is displayed on top of the link, and it is depicted by an arrow.

To select the embedded flow element, double-click the arrow.

To move the embedded flow diagram element, drag the arrow to a new position on the link.
