I am really pleased that over the past 3 or so years, ArgoUML has gone from marginally useful to a really nice modelling tool that is fairly easy to use and pretty robust.

I am not an intensive user past the functional spec stage.

My biggest wish is for some capability to record information in the model and actually be able to show it to the client. A MS-Word or OpenOffice document or presentation with the drawing and the associated information would be nice. An HTML version of the model that would allow the users to view the model with its textual information would help. The ability to select the features to extract would be good. Most of the time, I am dealing with non-technical managers and they could not care less about the programming details but would like to see my definition of an Actor or my Description of a Use Case, etc.

Reports:
A report of Actors, listing all the Actors with their properties
A report of Use Cases listing all of the Use Cases with their properties
Reports of individual diagrams

An export of a class diagram to a Hibernate mapping file is a nice little project that would give automatic generation of persistence schemas (SQL DDL) as well as POJO code for the classes through Hibernate.

Just some thoughts

Hello Ron!

I hope that you also can find time to monitor the progress of the Google
Summer of Code work on this and perhaps add your priorities and ideas as
suggestions for Christian and Bob to consider.

Christian is the student that will work with this and Bob is the mentor.

Subject: Re: [argouml-users] Sequence diagram takes too much vertical
space

I guess I can fix them by hand until then.

There are various issues to be resolved with the sequence diagrams
including this.

There is a complete rewrite planned as part of the Google Summer of
Code.
Please be patient with us and wait to see what comes out at the end
of
this project.

The first Classifier Role in my sequence drawing extends way down
below
the area in use.
I can not figure out why or how to shorten it.
The result is that the size of the graphic makes the text too small
when
printed on a page and the drawing looks silly with all of the
interesting bits scrunched into the top quarter of the page.

It there a way to trim the vertical height of the bar to get it to
match
the area where the actions are shown?
