Allied to: QuickLink and Instances is the question of how to create Instance elements (such as an Actor Instance in toolboxes...

Does anybody know how to do it?

Needs work across the board. Definitely request time.
No, you can't have it!

Received from Sparx:

Do you have any suggestions on how this behaviour should work?  Possibly the ability to add a toolbox item which prompts to select a classifier after dragging onto a diagram (to be consistent with the suggested quick linker behaviour)?

This sounds reasonable to me.  Once the question of Instance implementation itself is determined (see other topics), then this can be added.  An alternative would be to add [Ctrl+] functionality to the toolbox drag and drop (similar to dragging from the browser).

Thoughts?
