  Hello all,
Below (and attached) you can find the temporary results from the 
usability issues survey. There are 14 responses. The survey is still 
opened for another week, until Friday 30th of May.
Please participate in the survey if you have not done so yet. It takes 
less than 5 minutes. Visit 
http://freeonlinesurveys.com/rendersurvey.asp?sid=4rstjdj52d222e7436241

Regards,

	My GSoC project this year is to tackle some of the usability issues of 
ArgoUML. Please list the below wishlist in the order of your preference.
* NA/IDU - you don't understand the description and therefore prefer not 
to give a value for it (PLEASE DON'T SELECT ANYTHING)
* 1 - useless and distracting - if implemented, please make it optional 
and by default disabled;
* 2 - I don't think I will use it, but, maybe I will try it;
* 3 - might be useful;
* 4 - useful and improves the usability;
* 5 - very useful and it would be a killer feature from a usability 
point of view.

A. A quick "Build new class wizard" allowing to create a class from 
scratch and to avoid the same repetitive tasks every time a class is 
created: class name, attributes (visibility, type) and operations 
(visibility, returned/received parameters)

class and a new association; or onto another class to copy/move it.

a classifier role for example) and operations from the class should be 
available for integration on these diagrams.

X to class Y the user can just start to drag from class X towards class 
Y. The edge being drawn will shoot ahead of the user?s mouse position 
and attach to the first class in line when the user releases.

	Have you got any other suggestion for features, related to usability 
issues, you would like to see implemented in ArgoUML or any other 
comment to the above features (Please use letters A,B,C... to identify 
features above)?

- *Drag-move cardinalities on the diagram.*
- *From the Refactoring book, I think the following Refactorings could 
be useful: Collapse Hierarchy, Extract Hierarchy, Extract Class, Extract 
Interface, Extract Superclass, Pull Up Field, Pull Up Method, Push Down 
Field, Push Down Method, Rename Method*
- *mof-editor*
- *In case of problems (e.g. malformed xmi file) user centric error 
messages. Instead of Java exceptions with line number of source code, a 
message with the xml element or line number of xmi file, wich cause the 
problem.*
- *Undo*
- *e) The user will need some way to switch between current mode and 
lazer mode maybe by holding down a hotkey in the process and/or a toggle 
button in the diagram toolbar. They will still need the current mode if 
they want to drop multiple points for an edge. *
