Diagram Appearance

The software provides several ways to modify the arrangement and appearance of your diagram. These include:

Tools are available for arranging blocks in the diagram, including alignment, size and spacing.
The Diagram Style window is used to customize the properties of the diagram and to specify default settings for the blocks and connectors within the diagram. These default settings are used for all new blocks added to the diagram; in addition, if you change the block and/or connector settings in the Diagram Style window, the changes will be applied to all blocks and/or connectors that are using the diagram defaults (i.e., all blocks and/or connectors that do not have customized settings).
The ability to save the Diagram Style settings as reusable diagram skins.
For selected blocks (either singly or multiply selected), you can use the Block Style window to customize one or more properties.
For selected connectors, you can use the Connector Style window to customize one or more properties.
Various keyboard and mouse key combinations that you can use while working with diagrams.
