In UML models, you can create a topic diagram to dynamically explore
existing relationships between diagram elements by using a specific topic
in the context of a diagram element. You can customize, refresh, and save
a topic diagram.
Creating topic diagrams of UML elements In UML models, you can create a topic diagram to view the relationships between model elements by defining the parameters of a query. In the query, you can specify which elements or relationships to display in the diagram.
Customizing queries for existing topic diagrams You can customize a query for an existing topic diagram if you want to change its context or level of detail. When you customize the topic query, you cannot change individual diagram elements; you must change the query for the entire diagram.
Refreshing topic and browse diagrams When you open a topic diagram, the diagram elements in a project are refreshed automatically. However, if you make changes to the underlying elements when a topic or browse diagram is open, you must manually refresh the diagram to see all the changes.
Saving topic diagrams You can save a topic diagram as an image file or a save as topic diagram or convert it to an editable UML diagram so that you can work with it further.
