Creating a sequence diagram

For the library catalog system, we might want to create a sequence diagram that shows adding a new book to the catalog (one of our use cases). The sequence diagram will be a new model element added to the Library Catalog model.

To start working on a new sequence diagram, follow these steps:

  1. In the Relationships Browser, select Sequence Diagrams in the middle pane.
  2. Select New from the pop-up menu of the relationship.
  3. When prompted, specify Adding a book as the name of the sequence diagram. The new diagram element appears in the list in the rightmost pane.
  4. Double-click on the new diagram. The Sequence Diagrammer opens.
