Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Put an arrow on a canvas
2. Change arrow type to half arrow by writing lt=-\> (according to this site: 
http://www.itmeyer.at/umlet/faq/How%20to%20create%20connections%20in%20sequence%
20diagrams.htm)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: Half arrow is drawn
Instead: Invalid value error

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
13.0 August 2014

Please provide any additional information below.
I know it's possible to make half-arrow in Sequence All-in-one diagram, but it 
doesn't work when you draw diagram on your own.

The half-arrowhead is outdated and isn't used anymore since UML 1.4
see http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=169507&seqNum=3 and 
especially

Perhaps we will still add it in future, but this can be the reason why it's 
currently missing.
