Reference: This page is a source-based technical synthesis of the LaTeX chapter cited below. For exact syntax, availability or ABI signatures, verify the versioned source, manifest and executable tests.
Scope and source boundary
The source describes visual/StarUML modeling as a helper for designing models, not a verified step-by-step Designer UI reference.
The Runtime book discusses visual modeling with UML/StarUML as an aid to design and communication, while the authoritative model still resides in accepted declarations and compiler/runtime contracts. A drawing may guide domain discussion; it is not proof that a particular plugin, UI command or editor version is supported.
Engineering rules
- Relate each diagram element to a named conceptual model element.
- Do not invent a toolbar command or installation step absent from the source.
- Use an executable validation path for metadata and runtime behavior.
- Treat tool-specific compatibility as versioned and separately testable.
