Requested Features/Bug Fixes (Copied from General

[fwoolz]

Hi All,

Here are a few feature requests and one bug fix request:

-- Both of these requests arise from difficulties I've had in arranging use cases inside of collaboration ovals ---
1. Use case & collaboration ovals: Should have independent vertical & horizontal resizing of use cases & collaborations (allow oval to have any eccentricity/aspect ratio).
2. Use case/collaboration label: should be able to move it from the center of the oval to wherever desired.
-- These are of a more functional nature, and are based on work I've done in trying to represent network messages between nodes in a distributed system ---
3. Sequence diagram messages: Need to be able to have ability to place messages between objects at exactly the same height (i.e., the same time).
4. Sequence diagrams messages: Add support for downward sloping messages to provide visual presentation of non-instantaneous messages.  NB: This is permitted by the UML standard.
-- This would help alleviate difficulties dealing with many objects on a single diagram --
5. Sequence diagram messages: Add “off-diagram” reference to linked sequence diagrams.
-- This is a minor annoyance, but it would be nice to have it fixed! --
6. Code generation: Fix problem where initial value of an attribute isn’t reflected in code, and initial value in code doesn’t show up after synching model.

Cheers & Thanks,
Fred Woolsey

Hey cool, Fred is back But just as a zombie skiwi, you have not only wrapped around (I asked for a fix of that, but...). You also created a nice mess with your post.

Me, I never, the forum did that all on its own.
I confess to being less than keen to revert it to wot I wrote, sans the nonsense it added.
(might be something also to do with the fact that I pasted some stuff into the field, much the same was as the notes field doesn't like formatted text pasted into it.)
