Re: [argouml-dev] How should add to diagram work for edges with multiple nodes?

Hi Bob,

well I'd vote for option 1. I think it's better to let the user remove the unwanted associations from the diagram. Also I think that this case is rare and involves not too many associations in most of the (rare) cases.

Option 2 might look random and could also be overlooked, leaving the user to wonder why ArgoUML doesn't add the association to the diagram.

Thomas

P.S.: +1 to remove the GraphModel code, great idea!
