Data wizard

The Data wizard allows you to modify the data on which a diagram is based. The styling rules set for the diagram are not affected by the changes.
To open the Data wizard, go to Diagram Editing mode and choose Data>Edit Model.
The Data wizard has the following pages:
  • Welcome
  • Edit Your Data Model
In this wizard you can:
  • Add and remove rows, where each row represents an object in the model.
  • Add, remove, and rename columns, where each column represents a property in the model.
  • Modify property values.
When modifying the data model, be aware that model properties may already be used in the style rules defined for the diagram. If you change a property name, the affected style rules may become inconsistent. Therefore, when you try to remove or rename a property, a warning message will be displayed indicating the style rules that will be affected by the operation, if any. In case you need to rename a property, the preferred path is to create the new property and modify the style rules to depend on this new property. Once this is done, you can safely remove the previous property using the Data wizard.
