With OmniGraffle you can sort of link lines of text to another object using Magnets. Click on the uml object you want to link the text form and add a magnet next to the line of text. Then you can draw a line from that magnet point to another object. I use this all of the time for digramming databases and showing connections between tables. -- Trevor DeVore Blue Mango Multimedia [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
