In the Extended Use Case how do you label the Extension Points.

Double-click on the extend relation (or choose Properties from context menu), open Extend tab, and edit the text in Extension point field.

Is it possible to select multiple existing actors and add them to different use case diagrams? Doing it one by one is very uncomfortable :)

Now, it is possible in version 4.84, when you select multiple items in the project tree and drag them into a diagram.

Subsystem or system as actor 11/8/2010 2:33:51 PM

You can define custom sterotype for actor. Use <<system>> sterotype.

If the association between Actor and System is unidirectional, doubleclick on association and select the Navicable to get the open arrow head. For bidirectional association the arroheads are omitted. [S.W.Amber: The Elements of UML 2.0 Style]
