Displaying namespace containment

There is no drawing tool to manually draw this type of relationship on the canvas. Containment relationships between elements can only be displayed automatically based on existing relationships, using one of the methods described here.

Procedure

  1. Drag the "container" element and the "contained" elements to the diagram.
  2. From the menu, select Layout > Complete Relations > All

    The hierarchical relationship between the elements are depicted in the diagram.

    Alternatively, you can select the Populate Diagram check box when creating a diagram. If you then select elements that have a hierarchical relationship, the diagram created will display the namespace containment for the elements.
