Visual Basic® 2010 Unleashed

Creating Multiple Diagrams

You are not limited to creating one diagram. You can add multiple class diagrams to your project so that you can have a graphical representation of a complex hierarchical object’s structure. To add diagrams to your project, simply right-click the project name in Solution Explorer and select the Add New Item command. When the Add New Item dialog appears, select the Class Diagram item in the Common Items list. (See Figure 17.8).

This can be useful if you have to graphically represent complex frameworks, and if you need large design surfaces.
