New definitions are added to a project through the Explorer by right-clicking an appropriate area of the Explorer. A list of items comes up to select from: the list depends on the configuration settings for the encyclopedia, what methodology tab you are pointing to, and where on the Explorer the pointer is.
Configuration settings
The Explorer only shows, and makes available to add, diagram and definition types that are currently selected for the project encyclopedia. Diagram and definition types depend on the methodology and property sets you have chosen for the project (Customize Method Support > Tools Menu).
To create a new definition through the Explorer
1 In the Explorer, click the tab that contains the diagram type you want to add (that is, UML), or click the All Methods tab.
The All Methods tab displays a list of all available diagrams or definitions, dependent on the methodology and property sets you have chosen for the project encyclopedia.
A specific methodology tab displays a list of diagrams or definitions that are available in that methodology.
2 Add information in the definition dialog and then click OK. You can click OK without entering any information to give the item a default definition.
