Hello,

There are several ways to accomplish this:

  • Select a connector tool from the toolbox and drag it from the starting element to the ending element.
  • Hover over an element to see small circles appear around its border. You can drag one of these circles and drop it onto another element. A context menu may appear, allowing you to choose the type of connector you want to use.
  • Hold down the right mouse button while dragging an element and drop it onto another element. A context menu will then display, enabling you to select the type of connector (e.g., Add Association when connecting two classes).
