You can access the graphics positions of modeling objects, that is, data models and entity types, from within the data model hierarchy.

However, you can only display or change the graphics positions of the successors of the data model from which you accessed the graphics positions. The graphics positions of the successors are relative to those of the source object.

To display or change the graphics positions of hierarchy objects, proceed as follows:

  1. Position the cursor on the predecessor of the object(s) whose graphics positions are to be displayed or maintained.

  2. Choose Start of the navigation path Goto Next navigation step Display Options End of the navigation path. You can toggle between display and maintain modes with Display <-> Change.

  3. Enter the new values for those objects for which positions are to be maintained under Line and Column.

  4. Save your entries.
