Description Ralf Habacker 2014-01-30 15:00:23 UTC

Adding message widgets in current state is partially complicated.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start umbrello and create a new sequence diagram
2. add some objects 
3. add a message widget from the first object to the second 

Actual Results:  
A dialog opens in which I can select a predefined method or add a custom method. 
Here are two issues: 
1. If the requested method is not found in the class it is not possible to add it through this dialog. I have to
-  cancel this dialog 
- enter the treeview
- add a method 
- restart adding the message
2. To add a custom method I have to explicit change the radio button on the left side to  be able to add a custom method. 


Expected Results:  
In case 1. I expect to have a button in the mentioned dialog to be able to a new method directly, which is then preselected in "Class operation" combo box. 
For case 2. I except to be able to add a custom operation after clicking into the related input field.
