Keep Project/Domain Keywords in Glossary Grid

Having a standard meaning of domain vocabulary between business users and developers is important.

Not merely to achieve efficient communications but also to ensure the system can work according to users' expectation to prevent unpredicted behaviors and unknown terminology used in UI.

The Glossary Grid is ready for you to collect and define significant terms in project.

Identify Terms from Various Means

Besides entering domain terms into a glossary manually, you can also extract terms directly from the model. When you read through a description of a shape, simply right-click on any key terms to add them into the glossary. You can apply this technique to identify terms from shape names, user story's scenario, the 3'C' of user story (conversation, confirmation, card) and problem statement (in Textual Analysis).

Auto-Highlighting of Terms in Shape Name/Description

Once a glossary grid is established, occurrences of terms in shapes' name and description would be highlighted. You can click on any highlighted term to read their its definition.

Different diagrams correspond to different views of a system that could be combined to form a full picture of a system. Any particular element of one diagram may be linked or evolved from an element in another diagram. Visual Paradigm provides a gateway to identify new elements from existing ones and establish the linkages in between. To do this, extract glossary term from the name or description of an element. When you do this, you can optionally create model element with the identified term. The created element will be put into the Diagram Backlog pane, readily for use in diagram.
