    Hello,

    On Sequence Diagram I can see the Classifier on the properties tab, but I cannot select that Classifier directly, I have to search CTRL-F for the Classifier name. Would it be possible to implement a right click "Find Classifier", "Open parent Class" or similar from in Model Explorer? Thanks

    On the right side of the active classifier field there should be a small button. When you click it (instead of Ctrl-F) the "Select model element" dialog shows up and it allows to choose an existing class. It should give the functionality you expect.

    Hello Janusz the idea was when the parent Classifier has been assigned; say the next day I reopen the diagram and I want to jump directly to the Object's parent Class by just clicking on the Object in the Sequence Diagram...

    Indeed the navigation from an object to its classier type may be a useful feature and I think it could be added to the context menu of an object in the Model Explorer so the classifier could be found without typing any text.

    I found that StarUML had a GoTo context menu option in development with attachments in mind so I finished it and added classifiers for instance type elements. So it should be working now as planned in the release 5.5.5.
