I would like to add a custom image to my Component Diagram. I reviewed the Altova Component Diagram documentation but unable to find instructions about adding a custom image to a Component Diagram. I see it is possible for other types of UML diagrams but unable to learn how to with a component diagram. Please advise. Thanks

You can do this by adding a profile with a stereotype that points to the graphic. See the link below for instructions--it illustrates how to a custom icon for a Deployment diagram but the same steps apply for Component diagram as well.

Thanks for your reply and pointing me in the right direction. It works but it was very painful with so many steps. I wish Altova would make it easier to simply change an image. I guess that's the difference between a modeling tool such as UModel and a simple diagramming tool.

Thanks again.
