<title>Copying objects as PNG images</title>
|
|
<para>Apart from offering you the normal copy, cut and paste functionality that you would expect to copy objects between different diagrams, &umbrello; can copy the objects as PNG pictures so that you can insert them into any other type of document. You do not need to do anything special to use this feature, just select an object from a diagram (Class, Actor, &etc;) and copy it (<keycombo>&Ctrl;<keycap>C</keycap></keycombo>, or using the menu), then open a &kword; document (or any program into which you can paste images) and select <guimenuitem>Paste</guimenuitem>. This is a great feature to export parts of your diagram as simple pictures. </para>

<title>Logical Folders</title>
|
|
<para>To better organise your model, especially for larger projects, you can create logical folders in the Tree View. Just select the option <menuchoice><guimenu>New</guimenu><guimenuitem>Folder</guimenuitem></menuchoice> from the context menu of the default folders in the Tree View to create them. Folders can be nested, and you can move objects around by dragging them from one folder and dropping them into another. </para>
