You can now decide whether you want to make a model element subordinate to the UML top-level element by selecting either the New model element option in the pop-up menu or a diagram by clicking New diagram. If you insert a model element, the UML top-level element opens, the element is placed below it, and its name is selected for overwriting. A diagram is inserted in the same way and its name is selected for overwriting. Once you finish entering the name of the diagram by pressing Enter, the diagram opens in the modeling area.
