I’m a first time user of the UML feature of MyEclipse. I search the forums for ‘reverse sequence diagram’. I have to say that I’m too disappointed that DnD is not yet supported for sequence diagrams.

I saw a lot of nice ideas about sequence diagrams. So I will put down some that I did like, in the order of importance to me.

1. DnD for sequence diagram objects ( even if is not tied down to the classes, only the object with the proper name showing up will save me time building the diagram)

2. Option to pull down on previous messages used, or one of the classes’ methods. For this a tied down would need to created between the class and the sequence diagram object. I would save time when I set the arrow message and it would give me the option to pull-down select a previously typed message, or an operation of one of the classes.

3. Eclipse has the feature that allows you expand on call trees. It would be nice that you could expand on a call tree, check-mark the path that you are interested, and generate a sequence diagram from it.

4. Forward engineer a sequence diagram ( generate the classes, methods and relationships based on it).

Thanks for putting together this list. Will take this to the management.
