Video Viewer Tutorial - Draw Model

Video Draw Model

This video titled 'Video Viewer Tutorial - Draw Model' provides a step-by-step guide on creating models within the Dragon1 platform. It emphasizes the importance of structuring thoughts and documenting how entities are connected, especially when assessing dependencies and the impact of changes.

The video begins by instructing users to log in to Dragon1 and access the Viewer. Here, users can create a new Atlas by clicking the [+] button, naming the Atlas, and selecting a default template. Once the Atlas is set up, users select the first page in the Atlas treeview to start modeling.

To construct the model, users drag and drop shapes from the icon bar onto the canvas. The Smart Toolbar associated with each shape establishes relationships between these shapes. The Properties panel allows for customization of each shape's data, appearance, and style.

A notable feature highlighted in the video is the ability to export the created model to an Excel sheet. This functionality facilitates easy editing and updating of models outside the Dragon1 platform. Users can later re-import the modified Excel sheet to generate an updated version of the model within Dragon1.
