Set Actor Type

The Set Actor Type command sets the type of the selected actor. The actor type corresponds to the type attribute of the component. This command allows you to easily change the type of an actor (i.e., set the type of the component) directly from the use case diagram via a drop-down dialog without opening the property sheet for the component.

 

 

 

NOTE:

On a use case diagram, actors of type human are represented as stick figures. Other Components types are optionally represented as stick figures based upon the diagram preferences.
