Best Practices
- Make use of the infinite canvas
- Align & Distribute Nodes (multiple selection > Properties > Arrange)
- When building, keep Grid & Guides on (Properties)
- Try to keep a Vertical or Horizontal hierarchy of your systems
- Use colour schemes to format your Nodes
- Use Colour Coded Resources to keep Resource flows separate
- Group subsystems (select multiple Nodes > Right Click > Group)
- Use Layers
- Do not clutter your diagrams with unnecessary elements and text
- Do not use Comic Sans. Because you can’t 🙂
1. Select a diagram Node, then DoubleClick / Alt+DoubleClick on a New Node in the Components sidebar to instantiate it on the diagram and automatically connect it via a Resource / State Connection.

2. Zoom in/out ALT+Scroll
3. Drop Nodes on loose Resource Connections to auto-link

4. Use the Waypoints Presets to organise your diagrams

5. Add systems to My Library and use them later by drag&dropping them into any other diagram

6. Use Groups to declutter your diagram

7. Export Multiple Run data sets
8. Use Layers (View>Layers / Ctrl[Cmd]+Shift+L) for selecting & locking content
9. Use Outline (Ctrl[Cmd]+Shift+O) like a mini-map to navigate through larger diagrams

10. Duplicate/Delete with Connections
