Where? ¨ Core Features Guide · Chapter: “Customizing your Modeling Environment” Dependency Matrices Feature Dependency matrixes are available in all modules to help you visualize and edit links between any kinds of objects, even if they are in different kinds of models. You create the matrix, specify the kinds of objects, and the type of relationship between them that you want to view. You could, for example, create a matrix to show the links between OOM classes connected by association links, between tables and users in a PDM, or between PDM tables and the OOM classes generated from them.
