Hi All,

I use VP UML every now and then when I need to deal with UML diagrams. It is a great tool, but it seems silly that every time when it comes to an association class I can’t remember how it is drawn. Therefore, I have visited this page for many times during the last couple of years.

I think the development team can simplify it a bit.

Is it possible to create an instance of an AssociationClass, and display the link to the corresopnding association?

I could get an instance of an AssociationClass by creating an “Instance Specification” and adding the corresponding AssociationClass classifier. But I could not get the link displayed. (See bottom note in the image)

I can neither show the name of an instanciated association, even if I specify the corresponding classifier. (See top note in the image)
