Create Custom Views

View sections of an architecture model using components, ports, and interfaces

Typically, the structural hierarchy of a system differs from the hierarchy of the functional requirements. With architecture views you can sketch the system based on different hierarchies. For example, you can author a system using the requirements. This allows you to better understand what components you need to satisfy your requirements while not necessarily focusing on the structure.
