Carsten's right... there's still quite a lot to do.
You can use the assistant to *move* attributes and operations around ( up and 
down a class hierarchy ), but you cannot yet create/rename/edit those atts 
and ops.

The reason you cannot edit the attributes/operations is that I did not want to 
try and take the current edit-dialogs... that's when I created the 
Umbrello::DialogPage and friends, but I've only really implemented the class 
properties ( name, stereotype...).
Hopefully I'll implement the dialogs for atts and ops in the next couple of 
days.. then the assistant will be much more usefull.

when you move an op or att the two classes are automatically updated in the 
diagram.

why should this be an error?

will be fixed.

like I said, the page you see does not have any functionality yet...
what you see is pretty much just the designer template.

the only thing you can do now is move atts and ops (drag and drop to another 
class in the tree)

do you know how to raise a window? ( just give focus?)

well... If I remember ok, when I commited the assistant I said something like 
 "start of refactoring assitant" or something like that... I never said it was 
finished... then I just got distracted experimenting with the diagrams and 
forgot a bit the assistant, but I'll retake it soon.
