Read on for more guidance about working with sequence diagrams.

Note: If the tree view isn't visible, point to View on the UML menu, and then click Model Explorer. The new diagram, with the related stencil, opens in your browser. When you find the diagram you want to use, click its Create button. The other items in the row are sample diagrams that have some shapes already drawn to help you get started quickly.

The first item in the row represents a blank template plus the companion stencil. In the Gallery, scroll down to the UML Sequence row. Near the upper right corner of the page, select More templates. For more details, see Self-service purchase FAQ.

If your admin has turned on 'self-service purchasing,' you can buy a license for Visio yourself. For more information, contact your Microsoft 365 admin. Note: Creating and editing UML diagrams on Visio for the web requires a Visio Plan 1 or Visio Plan 2 license, which is purchased separately from Microsoft 365. Below the title corner, click the prompt if you want to enter the conditions that would end that process. Use the sizing handles on the fragment shape to ensure it encloses all of the related interactions.ĭouble-click in the title corner of the fragment shape to add a title or short description of the process enclosed by the fragment. To add another condition, drag an Interaction operand onto the shape.ĭrag the fragment shape to the interactions it relates to. The fragment comes with two sections, which let you show the alternative interaction. Use the Alternative fragment shape for an if-then or if-then-else process or interaction. Use the Optional fragment for steps that are only performed if a certain condition is met. Use the Loop fragment for a basic repeating interaction. If one or more interactions form a loop, or require a condition to be met to end the interaction, enclose those interactions in a fragment shape: To change the shape of a connector message:Īt the bottom of the pop-up menu, select from the three options ( Right-Angle, Straight, Curved).Ĭlick and drag the connector to change its shape. Use the Asynchronous Message shape to show when an action might not happen immediately. Use a Self Message to represent a recursive call of an operation, or one method calling another method belonging to the same object. Use a Return Message shape (a dashed line) to represent a response to a prior message. Use a Message shape (a solid line) to represent a request or the transmitting of information. The connections points disappear when you are done dragging.Īttach the beginning endpoint to the lifeline sending the message, then drag the head endpoint to the lifeline receiving the message.ĭouble-click the message shape to create a text box, and type a name for the message. A green circle appears at the endpoint when it glues to a connection point. Visio helps you glue the message endpoints to each lifeline. Use an Actor lifeline shape for each participant, and an Object lifeline shape for each system component in your process. To rename text labels, double-click the labels. Now, drag shapes you want to include in your diagram from the Shapes window to the page. This option makes connection points appear when you start connecting shapes. On the View tab, make sure the check box next to Connection Points is selected. If you still don’t see it, click the Expand the Shapes window button on the left. If you don’t see it, go to View > Task Panes and make sure that Shapes is selected. You should see the Shapes window next to the diagram. (A description of each one is shown on the right when you select it.) Then select either Metric Units or US Units. In the dialog box, select the blank template or one of the three starter diagrams. Or if you have a file open already, click File > New. Drag shapes from the stencil onto the drawing canvas to build the diagram. To build a sequence diagram, use a UML Sequence template or starter diagram, which includes the UML Sequence stencil.
