How to add notes in connectors

[Jeferson Kal Lyns]

Hello guys,

Well, I'm trying to get at each connection created is placed a note stating some data but do not know how to do this, can anyone help me?  :-/

The note element has PDATA4 set to idref<n>=<m>; where <n> is a consecutive number starting at 1 and <m> is the Connector_ID of the linked connector.

Hi Jeferson,

Did you think about using a shapescript?
If you will try this one onto a connector in UML Types, you will have e.g. the name of the connector at the source point.

You could aswell generate your own stereotype for an connector including a special taggedValue. In this one you might store your additional informations and display them like in the example code (instead of #name#).

Code: [Select]

shape main
{
      noshadow=true;
      setlinestyle("solid");
      moveto(0,0);
      lineto(95,0);
}
shape source
{
      
PrintWrapped("#name#");
}
shape target
{
      rotatable = true;
      SetFillColor(0,0,0);
      startpath();
      moveto(0,0);
      lineto(13,3);
      lineto(13,-3);
      endpath();
      fillandstrokepath();
}

Regards,
