Creating diagrams can involve the use of text and symbols. Many flowcharts and mind maps only use texts to label their shapes. However, if you’re more of a visual learner, you might appreciate using symbols. Great diagramming tools like Wondershare EdrawMax offer a plentiful library of symbols for you to use.
Furthermore, there’s a way for you to create personalized, AI-generated symbols with its AI Symbols feature. Here’s how to use it:
Step 1: Start a new project on the homepage by clicking + New.

Step 2: On the left-hand panel, click Symbols > AI Symbol.

Step 3: Under Resource type > Symbol, type the symbol in the text box. Use a specific prompt and click Create afterward.

Step 4: After image generation, select an image you like. Then, you can perform the following actions:
- Use PNG: Instantly put your selected image on EdrawMax’s canvas.
- Image information: View essential image information like creation info, image size, etc.
- Copy to clipboard: Put your chosen image in the clipboard to copy it to social media sites or the canvas.
- Download: Saves the AI-generated symbol to your PC’s local storage.

Step 5: Lastly, add your AI Symbol to your diagram. You can look for more symbols under the Symbols panel or generate more objects as needed under AI Symbol.
Note:
Make sure you have AI Tokens available to generate more symbols!
Pro Tip:
Using the floating toolbar setting Frame, you can place the stickers in a frame to make it more distinguishable. You can also use other tools like Adjust to change image brightness, opacity, etc.
