This dialog box is invoked with the Hyperlinks > Edit context menu command in the Diagram View or Model View.

The title of the dialog box varies depending on the way it is invoked:

  • Edit Hyperlinks for Diagram: Diagram_name -- You see this title if you invoke the Hyperlinks > Edit command on a diagram. Here the Diagram_name is the name of the diagram on which this command is invoked.
  • Edit Hyperlinks for Element: Element_name -- You see this title if you invoke the Hyperlinks > Edit command on a diagram element. Here the Element_name is the name of the diagram element on which this command is invoked.

The pane on the left of the dialog box provides two tabbed pages:

  • Model Elements -- Use this page to create hyperlinks to the model elements in the current model.
  • External Documents -- Use this page to create hyperlinks to the external files and URLs.
