You can create an interaction use from existing elements
to simplify and improve the readability of a sequence diagram.
A sequence diagram that contains at least one element must
be open.
To create an interaction use from existing elements:
- In the diagram editor, select the elements to include in
the interaction use. Selecting a message also creates lifelines
in the interaction use.
- Right-click in the diagram editor, then click .
- Type a name for the interaction use.
An interaction with the name you specified is created in the
diagram. Double-click the interaction use to open a new diagram which
contains the elements in the interaction use.
