Creating composite use cases
Lesson 2: Creating Your First Use Case Diagram
34
If you want to delete only the graphic representation of an object,
but not the KnowledgeBase object itself, you can use the Graphics
option on the Terminate submenu. Alternatively, you can use the
Delete key on your keyboard or the Delete Graphics option on the
Edit menu.
Tip
If you accidentally delete an object you want to keep, select
Undo on the Edit menu to recreate it. Alternatively, if you’ve
deleted only the graphic, you can recreate it by holding down the
Control key while you use the tool with which you originally
created the object.
Creating composite use cases
Use cases that contain
other systems
Composite use cases are use cases that incorporate one or more
additional systems. In your Employee Hiring System use case
diagram, you’ll include a composite use case representing a
subsystem within the Employee Hiring system. In Lesson 3,
“Getting More Specific about Your Hiring System,” you’ll create a
second use case diagram to show the details of this composite use
case.
What you do To create a composite use case:
1 In the Use Case Diagram Tools tool folder, click and hold on the
Composite Use Case tool.
2 Move your cursor below the Screen Resumes use case and release
the mouse button to create the new composite use case graphic.
3 Call your composite use case Hire Employees. Type this name
and then click on the window background to close the edit box.
