Description Eugine V. Kosenko 2003-11-03 12:57:17 UTC

Version:           1.1.1 (using KDE KDE 3.1.2)
Installed from:    Unspecified Linux
OS:          Linux

It's possible to choose line and fill color during the creation of a widget. However, it is not possible to change the colors of an existing widget.

This is essential for me, because I use colour emphasis for the crytical paths on activity diagrams. Usually I used to use line weights and line patterns for this purposes, but umbrello does not also have such features.

It is possible to change the colours of an existing widget.  Right click->properties->colours.

Handling of this has been made more reliable in the development version 1.2.

I have not found that I can change the line colors of messages.  I use this in order to track which thread or process is in control.  Is there any way to do this?  (I'm currently running with the version included in KDE 3.1.92)

Comment 3 Jonathan Riddell 2003-11-03 17:23:52 UTC

"can not change" presumably.

The colour can sometimes be changed by changing the line colour of the calling object.  But this only seems to work for the first change.

Being able to change the colour of messages directly would be good.

I'll open a new beastie

Sorry, I made the confusion because of bad term. What is about association 
paths? They do not have local menu item 'colour' or tab 'colour' in 
properties.

Comment 5 Mathieu Kooiman 2003-11-21 11:07:26 UTC

Right now (I just freshly compiled umbrello) it's not possible to change the colors of:

- Branche widgets ( in Activity diagrams )
- The Box widget ( in class diagrams )

This would be nice.

That's not true, double click on the widget. Nevertheless, there should be a
property entry in the context menu. Please create a bug report (bug, no
crash) for it.

> - The Box widget ( in class diagrams )

That's true. If you need this feature, please create a bug report (wishlist)
for it.

It's not good to attach your request to this bug report, because it was
already closed.
