Thanks for your in depth answer. Actually I use ArgoUML to model database 
tables. It is quite good, but I have many associations. I have to name them, 
but I don't want to see the text labels in diagram.
I am a Java developer, in my spare time I may add this feature to Argo. Is 
it possible to implement it as plugin? Is there a need for such funcionality 
in ArgoUML core?
