Attach documents
¬
 
The simplest way to attach a file to a Diagram! symbol is to drag and drop it into a symbol. In a Workspace file viewer, find the file you wish to attach to a symbol. Click the file's icon and drag it to the symbol.

As you hold the icon over the symbol, you'll see the cursor become the link cursor, and the symbol will be highlighted with a gray box.

¬

When you release the mouse button, the symbol's attachment button appears, indicating its attachment is set.

¬

When you click that button, Diagram! opens the file whose icon you attached and launches the appropriate application if necessary.

You don't have to create a symbol before you attach a file. If you hold down the Control key while you drag a document's icon in, and release the icon without selecting any symbols, Diagram! creates a symbol for you. The new symbol's attachment is set to the file you dragged. (There is an exception to this rule. If the file whose icon you dragged in was imageable, Diagram! creates a linked image.)
