---+ Working with Submodels

Arena provides a way to encapsulate different parts of a model, a _submodel_. New submodels can be added by using _Object > Submodel > Add Submodel_. A new submodel can also be added by clicking on the _Submodel_ <img width="24" alt="submodel_icon.png" src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/submodel_icon.png" height="23" /> button. The submodel can then be named by right-clicking and selecting _Properties..._.

You can open a submodel by double clicking on it. You will then see an new flowchart view (representing the model within the submodel) with entry <img width="22" alt="enter_icon.png" src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/enter_icon.png" height="21" /> and exit <img width="19" alt="exit_icon.png" src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/exit_icon.png" height="22" /> points. These points correspond to the entry and exit points on the submodel module in the main flowchart view.

You also can "nest" submodels within other submodels.

The easiest way to find your way around your submodels is using the _Navigate_ template.
