Setting the diagram template availability flag

An availability flag indicates whether the diagram template is available for users to select in the Create Diagram dialog box. Set this flag through the Available check box in the New Diagram Template or Edit Diagram Template dialog box.

• When the check box is cleared, the dialog box does not display the diagram template name in the Select Template list. (The check box is cleared by default.)
• When the check box is selected, the Select Template list displays the diagram template name.

Example workflow: when you create the diagram template, you can leave the check box cleared while you create new diagram types that use the template. Then, edit the template and make it available for new diagrams by selecting the check box. You can clear the check box for an obsolete diagram template that is no longer used for new diagrams.
