Parameters of call operation actions are represented as pins on an activity diagram.

It may that the position of a pin on a call operation action does not fit your needs. To create a tidy diagram and e.g. to avoid crossing object flows, you can move pins:

  • You can move pins from one side to the other side of the action node horizontally.

    You cannot move a pin to the top or bottom of the action node.

  • You can move pins vertically on the right or left border of the action node.

When you hover over the drag area of a pin, the mouse cursor changes to a drag cursor . To move the pin, select it and hold down the left mouse button.

As soon as you start moving the pin, the drag cursor changes to a grabbing cursor .

Drop the pin to its new location.
