Title: Shallow Copy Sequence Diagrams
Post by: rmfought on March 30, 2005, 10:50:37 am

I am trying to shallow copy a sequence diagram with about 8 or so participants, but no matter what I try all the participants are duplicated.  I need to make a lot of sequence diagrams with the same participants, and I really don't need umpteen copies of them floating around.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
Rich

Its because the elements in the seq diags are considered as instances.  I agree its painful - espcially when you do what I did and create all 16 alts in the same package..... :(
However, having got used to it I can now see the benefits. I can muck around as I like with the instances and only affect the classifiers when I get it right.
