---+ Adding and Connecting Modules in Arena

You add modules by clicking and dragging them onto the flowchart view. If you have _Object > Auto-Connect_, then the modules will connect automatically.

The attached <a target="_blank" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Flash" title="Flash Movies">flash</a> movie shows how to add a _Create_ modules connected to a _Process_ module, in turn connected to a _Dispose_ module (the flowchart structure for a single queue).

If you did not have _Object > Auto-Connect_ checked, you'll need to connect the modules yourself using the _Connect_ button <img alt="connect_icon.png" src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/connect_icon.png" /> to link module's exit <img alt="exit_icon.png" src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/exit_icon.png" /> and entry <img alt="enter_icon.png" src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/enter_icon.png" />points.

The following flash movie demonstrates this:
