Changing a Hierarchy: Reassigning Modeling Objects  

To reassign modeling objects, proceed as follows:

...

       1.      Position the cursor on the modeling object to be reassigned, that is, on the name of the data model (= sub-tree to be reassigned along with all its subordinate objects) or on the entity type you wish to reassign. For data models, choose Sel./desel. sub-tree or, for entity types, chose Select/deselect node.

If you want to reassign individual entity types and/or submodels, select the objects one after another with Select/deselect node or Sel./desel. sub-tree.

       2.      Position the cursor on the object on the same or lower level of the hierarchy to which the objects are now to be assigned.

       3.      Select Modeling object → Reassign. A dialog box appears.

       4.      In the dialog box, specify whether the object to be reassigned is to be on the same or a lower level of the hierarchy.

       5.      Choose Reassign.

 

No other object can be assigned on the same level as a root and no other objects can be assigned subordinate to an entity type.
