All,


I am a new user to Umbrello.  I am using version:  2.15.2.  It is a huge im=
provement over version 2.11.5.  So kudos to the bug hunters and the granter=
s of new features.


I have a tricky class diagram (a C++ template library for multi-threaded he=
uristic search) that I'm trying to fit on one page of my dissertation.


I'd like to be able to better control where the association lines attach to=
 the classes to make my diagram more readable.  As it is now, association l=
ines are sometimes attaching to the opposite side of the class and often  t=
ending to attach to the templates in the top right corner.


I have tried adding points and using different layouts for the associations=
.  Adding points sometimes helps me re-position where it connects to the cl=
ass, but my rate of success is pretty low.  I do see a blue dot where the a=
ssociation attaches to the class, but I have not been able to move this blu=
e dot (which is intuitively how one would expect to move where the associat=
ion line attaches to the class).


I'll be on the Umbrello IRC channel for the new few days.


Thanks for all your efforts in making and maintaining this tool.


-John
