Hi Mark,

You are not missing something, but ArgoUML is.
Indeed, the association between the actor and the "Zoom" usecase should suffice 
for the critic NOT to trigger.

Please enter an issue for this case in our database - this issue is unknown yet.
See: http://argouml.tigris.org/project_bugs.html

Regards,

  Subject: [argouml-users] Strange Advice From Critics


  I've been trying to use the critics as a way of insuring that my model is 
complete.  However, when creating use case diagrams I've noticed that the 
critics often provide me with feedback that doesn't make sense. 

  For example, let's say you want to create the following use-cases

  Actor -- (Zooming)  --> (Zoom Into Rectangular Selection)
                              --> (Zoom In By Increment)
                              --> (Zoom Out By Increment) 

  To create the first generalization of Zooming (Zoom Into Rectangular 
Selection), I click the Zooming use-case and drag the generalization arrow at 
the top of the use-case.  When I release the mouse, the new use case is 
created, and I enter it's name directly into the use-case ellipse. 

  However, when I do this I get feedback telling me that I need to "Add 
Associations" to the usecase even though in my estimation I just created the 
association that I wanted.

  Am I missing something?  

  Regards,

  Mark
