27.1 UML Diagrams

You can create UML diagrams by right-clicking on a class in any of the views and selecting Show Diagram or from the editor, right-click on a class name and select Show > Diagram.

You can select the relevant classes for which to draw the diagram from the Select Types button (see UML Diagrams - Select Types).

For the selected classes, the diagram can display inheritance, associations (pointers) and class members (see UML Diagrams - Preferences).

NOTE: To see the inherited pointers of a class, you need to select its parents and show at least one level of associations.

For the description of diagram drawing conventions go to UML Diagrams - Legend.

In the diagram editor you can right-click on classes and select Go To Source to jump to the source code.

You can jump to the declaration of a field, event, or method via right-click Go To Source.

To show or hide members of a class use right-click Members.
