           Summary: ability to limit association line angles
           Product: umbrello
           Version: 1.4
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: umbrello-devel.kde.org
        ReportedBy: heikki ebi ac uk


Version:           1.4 (using KDE 3.4.0, Mandrake Linux Cooker i586 - Cooker)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.3 (Mandrakelinux 10.2 3.4.3-7mdk)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.8.1-20mdk

When I use Umbrello to prepare UML class diagrams I always end up spending excessively  long time to get association lines in straight angles. See: http://www.ebi.ac.uk/~lehvasla/omgsnp/

It would be of great help it would be possible to limit the association line angles to, say, 15 degrees. It think the most flexible way of doing this would be have this property set at the class diagram level - with an ability to override the setting within the individual association lines.

This would be an alternative to 'snap to grid' mode.

Thanks,
