Wrap Member

Quite often, a class member is a long text string. This causes the class rectangle’s width to be increased and make the diagram hard to read. The “Wrap Member” feature is introduced that provide automatic insertion and reposition of soft returns to the class members at the right-side. With this feature, class members are confined to the class rectangle, allowing the class members to be read without scrolling over the diagram.
