Installing your UCD stencils

To make the stencil easily accessible when running OmniGraffle, put it in your Library/Application Support/OmniGraffle/Stencils/ folder (within either the top-level Library folder or your user Library folder). See OmniGraffle's online Help for more information.

Note: In versions of OmniGraffle prior to 3.0 Stencils were called Palettes. If you're running OmniGraffle 2.x you will need to place these files in /Library/Application Support/OmniGraffle/Palettes/.

For further instructions on how to install your downloaded stencils, visit the Omnigraffle website and scroll to the bottom of the page.
