Two ways to draw an object?
« on: March 21, 2007, 01:51:48 pm »

I have been able to use EA to draw an Object by dragging a class from the Project Browser and specifying it as a new instance.  It illustrates an object with its type as I expect.

When I use the Object element out of the Communication pallette of the toolbox, I cannot figure out how to indicate its type.

Should I always be pulling a class from the browser when I want to create an object and specify its type?  Am I missing something?

TIA.

The context menu (Advanced | Instance Classifier) or Ctrl+L can assign a type.

Excellent!  Thanks.

Didn't seem like an ADVANCED concept so I didn't even go that far.
