4. The model will appear in the BioUML repository and will be opened in a new workspace tab.
   
   
   
   

Adjusting model layout

To change the default layout of the model, use the Layout tab in the right bottom panel.

Currently, BioUML contains the folloing layout schemes:

• Hierarchical layout (default)
• Orthogonal layout
• Force directed layout
• Cross cost grid layout
• Grid layout

Select the desired scheme and click on the Prepare layout button . The newly generated layout will be shown on the right in the same tab.

Then, click on the Apply layout button to apply this layout to the model diagram in the document pane.

The selected layout scheme will apply to the model.

To edit any entity of the model, click on the corresponding element in the diagram and then click the Edit button .

The same actions can be performed for model reactions.

To edit model variables, use the Variables tab and after making changes, click the Save button to reflect these changes in the current version of the model.
