Title: Move connector between elements
Post by: Dave_Bullet on July 31, 2006, 02:03:13 pm

Say you have an activity diagram with activities A, B with a control path from A -> B.  You want to add activity C and have the following path A -> C -> B

It would be nice to be able to:
1. Grab the connector between A -> B at the B (target end)
2. Drag it across to C
thus deleting the connection from A -> B and "re-using" it to make A -> C

The above should also work for like minded relationship and elements types. (ie. associations between classes etc...)

Saves having to delete and re-add new connectors.

Cheers,
David.

Hold down shift, click on the connector near B, click on C.

Hello David,

You can switch connector end by clicking end of
connector with SHIFT key and click target element.

Hope this helps.
