Hi, i want to generate a communication diagrama from the Sequence Diagram. How do it.!!

Thanks

There is an (unsupported) add-in at http://sparxsystems.com.au/downloads/mdg_technology/C2SEQ.exe which performs the conversion in either direction. A couple of hints:

1. If, after installing, you don't see the "Add-Ins" menu on the main menu bar, try "View | Visual Layouts | Default Layout" to reset the menus.

2. The Sequence-to-Communication conversion works best if you use Objects rather than Lifelines on your sequence diagrams (i.e. don't use the Lifeline element from the toolbox but Ctrl+Drag a class element and choose "Instance" when prompted).

3. The conversion won't create associations between objects if they don't already exist, so the created communication diagram may look odd.

I already used it and it served to me. Thank you very much
