I have no clue if this can be made workable, but...

I know that the chart maker in MS Excel is fairly easy to make use of, and could the last time I used it, generate and be basically manipulated through the text on the work sheet and a few settings, if the chart portion can be exported to UML, would that serve your needs?, or possibly there may be a conversion tool for the excel charts to UML

just throwing out some thoughts that if not useful in themselves, may lead someone to think of or remember something that may be.

HTH,

Subject: Accessible UML drawing tools


All,
I know this question has been asked from time to time on this list but
I'm hoping for any recent updates that anyone is aware of. This week, I
started as tech lead for a new development project which will require
considerable documentation and reviews. I am hoping to find a tool which
will allow me to convey ideas and design structures in the form of
diagrams such as UML.

I'd like a tool which will accept some form of text input or XML input
and produce various diagrams. I have the latest copy of AT&T Graphviz
(version 2.18) and it is very powerful but Graphviz doesn't come with
any templates specifically aimed at producing UML style diagrams. It can
likely be done but if there is something else already out there which is
accessible, that would even be better.

Thoughts???
