You can use the DSL Details window together with the Domain-Specific Language Designer and DSL Explorer. For example, you can use the DSL Details window to set mappings and custom code settings not only between domain classes and shapes, but also between domain relationships and connectors. To set the general mapping details in the DSL Details window, you must first click a domain class, a domain relationship, or a map line in the Classes and Relationships swimlane in the Domain-Specific Language Designer. You can also click a connector shape or any one of the valid shapes that map to a domain class in the Diagram Elements swimlane.
For more information, see Connector (Domain-Specific Language Designer), Geometry Shape (Domain-Specific Language Designer), Image Shape (Domain-Specific Language Designer), Port Shape (Domain-Specific Language Designer), Swimlane (Domain-Specific Language Designer), and Compartment Shape (Domain-Specific Language Designer).
In addition to clicking these elements in the diagram, you can also click them in the DSL Explorer Domain Classes, Connectors, and Shapes nodes. For more information, see Defining Domain Classes in Domain-Specific Language Explorer, Defining Connectors in Domain-Specific Language Explorer, and Defining Shapes in Domain-Specific Language Explorer.
