Converting UML elements to sketch elements

You can convert a UML diagram or selected elements in the diagram to a sketch. The new sketch is a much more abstract representation of the UML diagram.

Procedure

  1. In the UML editor, right-click a blank space on the diagram and then click Convert to New Sketch.
  2. Type a name for the new sketch, select a location, and click Finish.

Results

The new sketch contains sketch elements that represent the units in the UML diagram. If you have set the sketch editor preferences to create links, the new sketch also contains a link to the original UML diagram.
