Defining Elements of the Sample complexType in the Diagram View

3. Type book as the name of the new element and press Enter.

4. In the Properties window, click the Data Type field. Stylus Studio displays a drop-down list of built-in types plus any types you have defined.

5. Click PublicationType.

6. Repeat step 1 through step 5 twice: once to add the magazine element, and once to add the newsletter element.
