The Network Diagram toolbox provides various tools to manage diagrams and configure diagram templates.

ToolDescription

Alter Diagram Properties

Alters properties for a stored network diagram.

Append to Diagram

Appends network elements to a network diagram.

Change Diagrams Owner

Changes ownership of stored network diagrams.

Create Diagram

Creates a temporary network diagram from network elements currently selected in the active map or from layers created from a Python script.

Delete Diagram

Deletes one or more stored network diagrams, which are optionally filtered by their diagram template names, related to a given network.

Export Diagram Content

Exports diagram content in a simple format (JSON) that reflects basic connectivity. Additional optional information such as diagram properties, diagram feature geometry, network element attributes, and aggregated elements can also be exported.

Extend Diagram

Extends a network diagram one network element level based on network connectivity or traversability or on containment or structural attachment associations.

Make Diagram Layer

Creates a network diagram layer from a network diagram.

Overwrite Diagram

Overwrites the contents of a network diagram with the network elements currently selected in the specified map. These network elements become the new initial content of the diagram.

Store Diagram

Stores a temporary network diagram in the database. Access rights and tags can be assigned to control security and searchability of the diagram.
