UML Designer User's Guide
There are two other ways you can create an explicit link between a use
case and an actor, or between two use cases:
- You can create an explicit "associated with" relationship in the
Relationships Browser. These links are independent of any hypertext
links that might exist between the elements and must be created as a separate
step.
When you create an explicit relationship in the Relationships Browser, it
is listed as an existing relationship in the Use Case Diagrammer.
However, it will still not appear in the diagram unless you make it visible
using Hide/Show Relationships on the pop-up menu.
- You can add figures for the elements to the diagram, and then use
Association or
Extension (depending upon the kind of link) to connect
them. Creating a visible association in a use case diagram
automatically creates an association between the underlying model
elements.
