Changing the Diagram File Name

Go Up to Working with Objects in the Repository

You can rename the file in the Repository that is associated with a selected diagram. The file name is defined by the system when you first add the diagram to the Repository and is initially the same as the Diagram Name.

Renaming the diagram using the Change Diagram Filename option does not change the diagram name displayed in Diagram Title box. You can change the diagram properties and the content of the Diagram Title box by opening the diagram, choosing File > Diagram and then editing the name on the Information dialog.

To change the diagram file name

1. Log in to the Repository.
2. Choose Repository > Diagrams > Change Diagram Filename.
3. In the tree, navigate to and then select the file whose name you want to change.
4. Click Rename.
5. In the Change Filename dialog, type a new file name, and then document the file name change in the Comment field.
6. Click OK.
7. Verify that the name change is as you expected, and then click Close.

Notes

• As with any Version Control Software (VCS), all users should check in all changes and perform a clean get after renaming.
