D - Connecting the Relationship Attribute Group to the Relationship

Once you define Relationship Attributes within a Relationship Attribute Group, you need to connect the Relationship Attribute Group to the Relationship. To do this:

Procedure

  1. Select the Group Connector icon under Connectors in the Palette.
  2. Make a connection from the relationship attribute group to the relationship by clicking the edge of the relationship attribute group box and dragging up to the relationship line.

Result

Relationship Attribute Groups (and their Attributes) have a collapsible display.

Once you successfully connect a relationship attribute group to a Relationship, you will see a small icon on the relationship which will show as a minus when the relationship attribute group and its attributes are maximized or as a plus when minimized.
