Assign model object to a form
If you have created a form from the drawing palette from the Forms area in a freehand diagram, this form is not linked to any model object. However, you can still link the form to a model object afterwards and convert it into a shape.
Instruction:

Open the freehand diagram in the WebModeller
-
Drag and drop the model object from the model overview onto the form
OR

Result:
The selected model object is assigned to the form, which is now a shape. The name of the form changes to that of the object.
Note: Following these steps, you can also link a shape with object reference to another object.
