Use [Lock] Mode when you want to create plural model elements at once! We've recieved this comment below from user and I would like to introduce a solution for this.
Quote: In diagrams, every time I have to choose an icon, place an object..and.. I have to choose the icon again, even when I would like to place the same type of object. Like I usualy place my classes, and then I draw arrows to connect them, but for every single arrow, I have to click again. There are two ways to solve this. 1. Place model elements by holding [Shift] key down When you create a new model, you select an icon of model element from Tool bar then click on the Diagram Editor where you want it to be. Try holding [Shift] key down when you click on the Diagarm, it enables you to create more than one model in a row. 2. Use [Lock] Mode on the Tool Bar  The focus on the Tool Bar would normally go back to the left arrow after new model element is created. However if you switch this [Lock] mode on, the focus stays on an icon you selected until you select another one, so you can create same type of model element continuously! So you don't have to go back and forth on the tool bar and it will definitely save your time!  Cheers, Satomi |
