Class diagram editor - uml

I have a file very big file .umlclass. It has a lot of classes, Enumerationtypes, relations.... I want to organize it in the class diagram Editor, but it is impossible because I don't know where the things are.
In the Project Explorer of Eclipse I can see the tree and in the view properties I can see the properties of each one, but I can't see it in the class diagram Editor.
Is there any kind of select or find each resource in the diagram Editor? I'm using the UML2Tools plugin.
Thanks in advance.

Actually the UML2Tools don't have a full fledged editor. Consider using another editor for your Eclipse UML2 Model.

Omondo EclipseUML can read all UML2Tools model.
You just need to to create an empty class diagram and drag and drop one classifier inside the diagram. The project will immediately import all models and then allow you to navigate graphically in the model using the class diagram as a viewer of your model.
It is really good because your diagrams are not anymore the model itself as it is for many tools but only a viewer of your model.
Really cool feature :-)

How can I extend the functionality of the UML designer?
I want to be able to load some specific class file and show the infos(attributes, relations) into the UML Diagram?
Thanks!
As UML Designer is based on Eclipse Sirius, you need to update the diagrams specification : uml2.odesign.
If you don't know yet Sirius, you can have a look to the get started page.
If you have more specific questions do not hesitate!

Visual Paradigm Class Diagram Drawing

I need to create a Class Diagram with some Model Packages. I have to use Visual Paradigm as modeling editor. The target I'm looking for is a diagram like this one:
My problem is the following: how to create a Class like the classes in this picture?
I'm trying with the default Class command:
but it's not what I'm looking for. The class name must be centered and without the separation line. How can I do this?
I have also tried with Rectangles and Text Boxes overlapped, but in this case I'm not able to draw associations between the classes.
Thanks in advance.
The solution is very simple: you have to hide all the class attributes and methods (thank you, clapas!)

Component modeling in Eclipse

I want to make a component model using Eclipse (and possibly some plugins?) - and the corresponding object-model for the objects within the component. This web page has an example of the component model and object model I am trying to produce.
http://www.agilemodeling.com/artifacts/componentDiagram.htm (please look at the diagrams)
To be honest I am new to eclipse. I want BOTH the diagram and the classes and interface definitions as well (not just a picture). But I also want the picture..... not just class and component definitions. I'm running on Windows.
Are there special plugins for diagrams?
Are there special plugins for component models?
How in Eclipse do you place the classes in a component?
Any links to examples (other than the one I have), would be so appreciated!!
Thanks In Advance!!

How to export images from IBM Rational Rhapsody diagrams

Im using IBM Rational Rhapsody 7.6 for UML modeling.
Iv'e created class diagrams, use cases, sequence diagrams and i want to export it to some kind of image or PDF or something, anything that is viewable in a nice way will do.
I found the export to report under "Tools" but then you get a rich text file with a super odd format and the class diagrams will be cut up in the middle to fit the A4 pages.
So how to export to an image from IBM Rational Rhapsody, UML modeling.
If you just want to export a single diagram, right click on diagram and select "Export Diagram Image" and there you go.
If you want to have a model with many diagrams exported at once, you can try the HTML output via Reporter Plus (built into Rhapsody), or for more features you can try Rational Publishing Engine (additional licenses might be required).
You can export diagrams to PDF by installing a PDF writer such as CutePDF (http://www.cutepdf.com/Products/CutePDF/writer.asp)
Then select File\Print Diagrams from the menu in Rhapsody and print chosen diagrams to PDF

How to use a class defined in another .uml file using Papyrus UML?

I'm Using Papyrus UML and I have to use in my diagram, a class which is defined in another .uml file. HowI can do it?
Thank you
You need to create a shortcut but for me this is not usable because I prefer to mix usecase and class diagram elements inside the same model and sometimes even the same diagram.
You can do it with RSA IBM or Omondo EclipseUML.
I do not know particularly about Papyrus, but in UML in general, you should have a Model-element at the top-level, and in there, you create a PackageImport. Now you should be able to set the ``Imported Package'' reference---but the other UML must be loaded from the workspace first:
This is where things become interesting! in the plain Eclipse UML editor, you have to load the resource first using the 'UML Editor' menu or the ``Additional Resources'' sub-tree in the model-outline. I guess Papyrus offers at least the same way through the outline.
