Yes, but complex. Problem is that connection points are identified by integers, and the UML class already gets additional connection points on the sides as attributes and operations are added. This makes it harder to make sure the save files recognize the correct connections. It would probably not be a bad idea to be able to name CP's instead, however we still need to figure out where which points should be placed when the object gets resized. If this confuses you, I can draw you a diagram of it. It would get even trickier if we wanted an arbitrary number of points on the top or bottom, which I'm sure somebody would want. But that would require some interface to add points. -Lars _______________________________________________ Dia-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dia-list FAQ at http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia/faq.html Main page at http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia
