Title: BUG: Text block numbers vary
Post by: Paolo F Cantoni on October 10, 2006, 01:21:31 am

For other than a reflexive Association, the role name and the multiplicity appear in two separate text blocks.

For reflexive, they appear in the same one...

Can we have one or the other please?   :-X

I also note that both the Name and the Stereotype appear in the same block.

I'm in two minds as to whether this is good or bad...

Thoughts?

Looks like we need two blocks...

A side effect of one block is that when switching to IE based rendering, the multiplicity block is hidden.  For reflexive connectors, this is not the case.

Can we have mulitple blocks please - this, coupled with the current propensity of EA to re-size and randomly re-locate labels is infuriating.

reflexive association "features" were reported several times... without any change in those features ;D

Actually, the change was made.  Reflexive connectors can now be resized.

my mistake, however resizing is very interesting  ::) :

resizing is possible if mouse is clicked over edges/corners of reflexive association. If you'll try to resize my moving one of the segments, opposite segment will move with it by preserving distance of two opposite segments.
How see this: make reflexive association like this
---->
|    a  | b
|------|

Is this intended behaviour, simonn?  ;D

When you move a segment rather than the resize points you're moving the rectangle.  However, it resizes if you move it so that the rectangle would no longer intersect the element.
