Working with Diagrams

Diagrams are created in the Diagram Window using Commander’s
graphical elements. They are the graphical equivalent of scripted
programs. By creating a diagram you build the instruction set for running
your job.You can create original diagrams or copy and paste parts of
existing diagrams into your new diagram.

Creating a Diagram

Diagrams can be created in two ways:

Open a new Diagram Widow, add your elements, and save it.

Open an existing diagram, modify it, and save it with a new name.

Building a New Diagram

Each time you open GML Commander, a new Diagram Window appears,
ready for you to begin developing a new instruction set. You can also use
the New Diagram option on the File menu.

To build a diagram:

1. Select New Diagram from the File option of the menu bar.
