Title: sequence diagram and message component
Post by: upux on February 20, 2002, 07:30:59 am

Hi

i have got a problem when using sequence diagram. I cant change the location of the message component. After i drag and drop , it fixes itself . Can i change the position of a message component .It has got a property "set message scope" but it doesnt work properly. For example if i made a mistake or put a message component to a wrong place then i cant fix it, after all i have to draw them from the beginning. Is there a solution ?

Thanks.

Hi,

Yes - you can change the following:

1. Change the vertical position of a message simply by clicking on it and drag/drop up or down - usually you drag until the message is between two other messages you want to 'push apart'

2. Use the Set Message Scope dialog to set the source and target of the message. There was a problem with this dialig for a couple of builds - it has been corrected since build 461.


If this doesnt solve your problem, let us know,

it doesnt work properly  because i choose the use-case diagram for drawing sequence diagram  .Now it is ok .I think this is the best tool for UML .thanks
