# Diagrams
Diagrams is a channel in Conducttr that allows you to create an **interactive diagram.**
| Benefit | Feature |
| --------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| Greater emotional impact | Dynamically change background image/add and move counters to pre-defined diagram locations |
| Communicate dynamic info-graphics | Create multiple diagrams for different purposes within the same scenario |
## Running
The diagram will be updated according to how you configured your counters, locations, and Diagram injects.
With a new inject in the Master Events List (MEL), you can update that plane so e.g. it shows where it crashed:
### Timeline
The timeline in the Facilitator Dashboard updates itself when counters are added or moved.

## Designing
{% embed url="" %}
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
### Create your diagram
Navigate to `Configuration` > `Channels` > `Diagram` area and click to add a diagram.
Upload your image (1920 x 1080px) to be your "diagram".
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Add locations to the diagram
When you get to Master Events List (MEL) you'll be able to send icons to diagram locations. But first you need to add the locations. Click the map or click "Add location", then move the "location" to where you need it.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Upload a marker
Upload an graphic to use as a marker with the diagram if you don't like the pre-defined markers (icons).
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Add inject to affect the diagram
* Update diagram can be used to replace the whole image (e.g. if the diagram is representing polling data)
* Move marker to location - positions a marker on the map (see below)
* Change marker icon - this can be used when the marker changes status e.g. if a ship is destroyed or a server is hacked
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Move marker to location
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://helpdocs.conducttr.com/feature-documentation/designing-and-running/channels/information-based-channels/diagrams.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
