Re: Hide association names in diagram

Hi Jan,

Indeed, there is no way to hide the association names.

Usually, if you name them, you want them to be seen (otherwise you would not 
give them a name). But since you ask this question, I suspect you used the 
Java code import function, which automatically assigns names. Maybe we need 
a setting in the Import Sources dialog to leave association names blank.
This is a known issue in ArgoUML's issue database, see:
http://argouml.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3227


About Generalizations: The standard says:

"A generalization path may have a text label called a discriminator that is 
the name of a partition of the children of the parent.
The child is declared to be in the given partition. The absence of a 
discriminator label indicates the "empty string" discriminator which is a 
valid value (the "default" discriminator). "

Hence, showing a name would only cause it to be confused with the 
discriminator.

Regards,
Michiel
