How to Dramatically Reduce Drawing Time - New connection modes
"Chain" Mode
How should diagramming software work? Is it possible to develop a diagram as quickly as the ideas come to you?
The innovative ConceptDraw Arrows10 Technology included in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is a powerful drawing tool that changes the way diagrams are produced.
While making the drawing process easier and faster.
ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is a powerful tool that helps you create a process map diagram quickly and easily. Fine-tuning the objects in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM allows you to create a really professional finished article. ConceptDraw Arrows10 Technology gives drawing connectors a smart behavior that provides quick and precise placement, allows for easy changes and automatic rearrangement.
The "chain" mode connects every new shape to the previous one. If you want to create a new branch in your diagram, you just deselect the current chain and select the new shape, which will be the root for this branch, turn the "chain" mode on again and then continue adding shapes. The "chain" auto connection mode is convenient for drawing flowcharts and business process diagrams.

ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming software provides vector shapes and connector tools for quick and easy drawing diagrams for business, technology, science and education.
Use ConceptDraw DIAGRAM enhanced with solutions from ConceptDraw Solution Park to create diagrams to present and explain structures, process flows, logical relationships, networks, design schemes and other visually organized information and knowledge.
While creating flowcharts and process flow diagrams, you should use special objects to define different statements, so anyone aware of flowcharts can get your scheme right. There is a short and an extended list of basic flowchart symbols and their meaning. Basic flowchart symbols include terminator objects, rectangles for describing steps of a process, diamonds representing appearing conditions and questions and parallelograms to show incoming data.
This diagram gives a general review of the standard symbols that are used when creating flowcharts and process flow diagrams. The practice of using a set of standard flowchart symbols was admitted in order to make flowcharts and other process flow diagrams created by any person properly understandable by other people. The flowchart symbols depict different kinds of actions and phases in a process. The sequence of the actions, and the relationships between them are shown by special lines and arrows. There are a large number of flowchart symbols. Which of them can be used in the particular diagram depends on its type. For instance, some symbols used in data flow diagrams usually are not used in the process flowcharts. Business process system use exactly these flowchart symbols.

When studying computer science, it is important to have good training manuals. To understand how the networks and data links work, you will probably need a set of network diagram examples depicting all the possible interconnections between network devices. You can find them on Internet or try to create your own.
This example of a network topology diagram was made using ConceptDraw Computer and Network Diagrams solution. It represents a bus topology network diagram. A bus topology means that computers and peripherals in the network are connected to a mutual cable (backbone). This topology is often used for small networks. This diagram was designed using vector libraries of network equipment symbols. They also can be applied while creating various LAN and WAN diagrams.
Is it possible to draw a diagram as quickly as the ideas come to you? The innovative ConceptDraw Arrows10 Technology included in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is a simple and powerful tool to create any type of diagram.
You mau choose to start from one of plenty diagram templates or to use your own idea.
Block diagrams solution extends ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software with templates, samples and libraries of vector stencils for creating the block diagram.
Create block diagrams, electrical circuit diagrams, schematics, and more in minutes with ConceptDraw DIAGRAM.
A Venn diagram, sometimes referred to as a set diagram, is a diagramming style used to show all the possible logical relations between a finite amount of sets. Having ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software one allows anyone who cares for their drawings to look not only nice but also smart and professional.
Quality Control Chart Software (ISO Flowcharting) - ConceptDraw DIAGRAM extended with Total Quality Management TQM Diagrams Solution from the Quality Management Area is the best diagramming and vector drawing software that allows you to draw the quality control charts quick and easy.
The quality control chart is a graphic that illustrates the accordance of processes or products to the intended specifications and degree of differences from them. Depending on what type of data you need analyze, there are used different types of quality control charts: X-bar charts, S charts, Np charts.

A Home Area Networks (HAN) is a type of local area network that is used in an individual home. The home computers can be connected together by twisted pair or by a wireless network. HAN facilitates the communication and interoperability among digital devices at the home, allows to easier access to the entertainments and increase the productivity, organize the home security.
This example was created in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM using the Computer and Networks Area of ConceptDraw Solution Park and shows the home network diagram.

When searching for a diagramming tool, we look for a powerful and reliable software that would be easy to use. To mention one, ConceptDraw DIAGRAM has all the necessary features to create cross-functional flowcharts (Swim Lanes) quick and effortlessly. You can draw swim lane diagrams in both vertical and horizontal ways.
This cross-functional flowchart displays a payroll process. It explains to each participant his role in the process depending on the category, represented with swimlanes. Using this flowchart, every employee can easily find out what he can expect in terms of salary. Generally a cross-functional diagram enables one to take a look at processes with a wider scope and with more precision than simple flowchart. Business process capturing using cross-functional flowcharts can be useful for stakeholders and managers to define clearly the staff's roles and responsibilities.
