Adding Nodes


 To add a Node or Nodes, perform the following steps:

  1. Select the "Add Node" button at the right of the dialog. The user may note that once this button is pressed, an item will be added to the appropriate Node branch on the tree listing.
  2. The central area of the dialog is where the user may change specifics regarding the item added. Enter the name of the item, and any required properties for that new item. For more details regarding adding or removing properties, refer to Adding Properties, or Removing Properties, respectively below.
  3. To add the settings for the new Node, press the "Add" button.
  4. If all items have been added, the user may press 'OK' from the Dialog Control Area to close down the Meta Model Builder. Otherwise, to Add other Items, select the appropriate button from the Dialog Control Area, or press 'Cancel' to ignore any changes made in the Meta Model Builder.

Modifying or Deleting Nodes from this Meta Model Builder dialog are covered in the Modifying Items section. To begin drawing the graphical representation of the node using the attributes you specify in this dialog, refer to the Modeller Section.
