I am a long-time user of Eclipse however I'm a new user of UML2tools. I
would appreciate some help getting me over the following hurdles.
Background
I'm trying to draw a simple class diagram and having considerable
difficulty. (I'm following the basic tutorial documented here:
http://www.vogella.de/articles/UML/article.html)
Hurdle 1
I can create the classes and their attributes/operations. However, when I
try to follow the step "If you select your UML diagram and click on the
outgoing arrow you can create associations", I am not able to associate a
class to another class. When I click the outgoing arrow and hover over
another class, the cursor becomes a "prohibited" symbol (circle with line
through it). Creating connections, i.e. associations, using the arrows
does not work for me.
Hurdle 2
As a workaround, I can use the Palette to create an Navigable Association
between classes. However, I am not able to create a simple one-way,
directed association as described in messages #476574 and #476575.

The association does not have preferences for "-Show all arrows and x?s.
-Suppress all arrows and x?s.
-Show one-way navigibility only"
