Use case dialog box

Use cases

A use case represents a system's functions. One or more sequence diagrams show how these functions or activities are carried out by external users called actors and objects of the system.

The relationships between uses and actors are described in use case diagrams.

The "Use case" dialog box contains four tabs - "Properties", "Notes", "Tagged values" and "Stereotypes". For information on these standard dialog box tabs, please see "Standard dialog box tabs".
